When you traditional bridging, the bridge takes the IP, not the interface. Also, there is/was a bug where the bridge name has to sort alphabetically after the interface, so I got into the habit of using 'vbrX' as the bridge name. If this doesn't help, please share you interface and bridge config files. -- Digimer Papers and Projects: https://alteeve.ca/w/ What if the cure for cancer is trapped in the mind of a person without access to education?
