Ethernet Bridge

From GSLUG

This script creates a bridge for static IP client. Modify the IP and GATEWAY variables. This script is useful for wifi/ethernet bridges and Quick Qemu bridges.

IP=192.168.0.3
GATEWAY=192.168.0.1

sudo /sbin/brctl addbr br0
sudo /sbin/brctl addif br0 eth0
sudo ifconfig eth0 0.0.0.0
sudo ifconfig br0 $IP
sudo /sbin/route add default gw $GATEWAY


# Add other interfaces to your bridge by running:

sudo /sbin/brctl addif br0 $IFACE

# where IFACE is your other interface.
