yes, with any two interfaces the bridge works well. tcpdump show these messages when i configure bridge with more than 2 interfaces: 14:52:57.771505 ARP, Request who-has 192.168.4.157 tell 192.168.4.155, length 46 14:52:57.771519 ARP, Reply 192.168.4.157 is-at 00:0b:ab:4f:d4:2a (oui Unknown), length 46 14:52:58.788076 ARP, Request who-has 192.168.4.157 tell 192.168.4.155, length 46 14:52:58.788095 ARP, Reply 192.168.4.157 is-at 00:0b:ab:4f:d4:2a (oui Unknown), length 46 14:52:59.804630 ARP, Request who-has 192.168.4.157 tell 192.168.4.155, length 46 14:52:59.804646 ARP, Reply 192.168.4.157 is-at 00:0b:ab:4f:d4:2a (oui Unknown), length 46 14:53:00.821083 ARP, Request who-has 192.168.4.157 tell 192.168.4.155, length 46 14:53:00.821098 ARP, Reply 192.168.4.157 is-at 00:0b:ab:4f:d4:2a (oui Unknown), length 46 14:53:01.837654 ARP, Request who-has 192.168.4.157 tell 192.168.4.155, length 46 14:53:01.837672 ARP, Reply 192.168.4.157 is-at 00:0b:ab:4f:d4:2a (oui Unknown), length 46
it seems that bridging just can be done by two interfaces:( i use "ifconfig bridge0 create" and "ifconfig addm igb1 addm igb2" for bridging two interfaces. i test by putting the below commands in rc.conf file: cloned_interfaces="bridge0" ifconfig_bridge0="addm igb1 addm igb2 addm gbeth1 up" but nothing changed.
