Hi Gianluca,

You probably have the 'bridge' command available in there, it's the iproute2 version of brctl tool. Just like we had ifconfig->ip, we are having brctl->{bridge,ip}..

Note that 'bridge' is for bridge-specific stuff, like:

$ bridge link help
Usage: bridge link set dev DEV [ cost COST ] [ priority PRIO ] [ state STATE ]
                               [ guard {on | off} ]
                               [ hairpin {on | off} ]
                               [ fastleave {on | off} ]
                               [ root_block {on | off} ]
                               [ hwmode {vepa | veb} ]
       bridge link show [dev DEV]

while you may create the bridge itself via ip command.

Ah ok.. indeed I verified I have it inside the Atomic host image.
I've been already using the "ip" command but I didn't know about the "bridge" one.
Hey, but the developers could have done it better: one more character to type now vs the previous "brctl" one; I will create an alias named "brdg"... ;-)

At the end, "less" is better than "more".... 

Thanks for the notice
Gianluca
