bridge_name
Define the name of the bridge (max 15 charaters).
(unique, required, string, no default)
bridge_slaves
Define the list of interfaces, space separated, to add to the bridge. The list can be empty.
(unique, optional, string, no default)
bridge_ageing
Set the ethernet (MAC) address ageing time in seconds.
(optional, integer, no default)
port_hairpin
Set hairpin forwarding mode. A list of ports that should have hairpin enabled can be specified using
the following Example: eth0 eth1
(optional, string, no default)
stp
Enable or disable Spanning Tree Protocol on the bridge.
(optional, boolean, default false)
stp_bridgeprio
Set the bridge's priority to defined value. The priority value is a number between 0 and 65535), and
has no dimension. Lower priority values are preferred. The bridge with the lowest priority will be
elected as root bridge.
(optional, integer, no default)
stp_fd
Set the bridge forward delay (in seconds).
(optional, integer, default 0)
stp_maxage
Set the bridge maximum message age (in seconds).
(optional, integer, no default)
stp_hello
Set the bridge hello time (in seconds).
(optional, integer, no default)
stp_pathcost
Set the port cost. This is a dimensionless metric. A list of port/cost can be specified using the
following format: unpromoted cost unpromoted cost. Example: eth0 100 eth1 1000
(optional, string, no default)
stp_portprio
Set the port priority. This is a number between 0 and 63. brctl man page reports a value between 0
and 255, but tests show a limit of 63 on a live system. This metric is used in the designated port
and root port selection algorithms. A list of port/priority can be specified using the following
format: unpromoted cost unpromoted cost. Example: eth0 10 eth1 60
(optional, string, no default)
multicast_router
Enable or disable multicast routing on the bridge.
(optional, boolean, default 1)
multicast_snooping
Enable or disable multicast snooping on the bridge.
(optional, boolean, default 1)
multicast_port_router
Enable or disable a port from the multicast router. Kernel enables all port by default. A list of
port can be specified using the following format: unpromoted 0|1 unpromoted 0|1. Example: eth0 1 eth1
0
(optional, string, no default)
