Bridging-(How to test and verify that bridging is enabled)

[Faizan ul haq Muhammad]

Hi, 

I am not sure but as per some internet guide, I have configured the bridge on Freebsd(7) Machine with two LAN cards on it

 

I have compiled my KERNEL with (device if_bridge) 

 

and then added code to rc.conf

 
cloned_interfaces="bridge0"
ifconfig_bridge0="addm sk0 addm sk1 up"
ifconfig_sk0="up"
ifconfig_sk1="up"  I connected two linux PCs with these two interfaces (sk0 and sk1) and tried to ping between them but didnt get any success.configuration seems to be ok, but still no traffice is being passed. Can any one give any sugestion ?  Regards!!!!!
