I'm trying to configure a persistent bridge through
/etc/network/interfaces. My configuration is as follows: iface ens192
inet manual auto br0 iface br0 inet static bridge_ports ens192
#address 10.60.0.20/24 #gateway 10.60.0.1 However, this returns the
following errors: ifup[742]: Cannot find device "br0" ifup[742]: ifup:
failed to bring up br0 I noticed that this occurs because I did not
install the deprecated package "bridge-utils", since Debian comes with
iproute2, which already creates bridges. If I install bridge-utils, it
works. It doesn't make sense to me that "ifup" depends on a deprecated
package that has already been replaced by iproute2. If I create a
bridge directly using "ip link add name br0 type bridge" it works
normally, but I want to leave it in etc/network/interface so that it
is a persistent and automatic configuration. Please, I need some help
with this because I don't believe that Debian forces us to install a
deprecated package.
