what does if_bridge give you that cannot be achieved with
ng_bridge+ng_eiface?
Well, I guess it has some spanning tree algorythm in it, but it might be
as easy to put
that in ng_bridge and a lot more flexible,

Hi,
The if_bridge code that will soon be committed can be configured using
either brconfig or ifconfig.

Only one tool will be committed and I would like to get opinions on
which one ppl prefer
brconfig
- new util to /sbin
+ same as NetBSD/OpenBSD
- would require new rc.d script and rc.conf keywords
ifconfig (patched for if_bridge)
+ one tool to rule them all
+ seamless with rc.conf, ifconfig_bridge0="..."
- diverges from the other BSDs
