Well, it works fine. It just would be more comfortable for me to do just: ifconfig bridge0 addm ifX and have bridge0 configured to add stp proto to each member interface as a default action. It would allow me to configure spanning tree on specific bridge globally, with no need to do it for each member interface. -- Jędrzej Kalinowski _______________________________________________ freebsd-net@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-net-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
