Bridge Interfaces

Bridges are used to connect multiple interfaces together. They use the same configuration as ethernet interfaces, but with an additional interfaces field.

Field Required Description
interfaces X A list of interfaces to bridge together.

Netd will automatically bring up the interfaces in the bridge.

Do not configure the interfaces that are part of the bridge separately. Assign the IP configuration and stuff like that to the bridge interface itself.

The interface name can be anything you want, but it must be unique. You can not use renames with bridge interfaces as renames are applied before the bridge interfaces are created to begin with. You may rename the interfaces that are part of the bridge though.
