Description

Hi, recently tried configuring a bridge/stp alongside freebsd host with bridge. Looks like DragonFly version has some bugs in it... Dunno whether they are serious one or not. From time to time it loses connectivity and falls back to "blocking". Much more frequently following situation occurs:

FreeBSD (net.link.bridge.log_stp=1):

Jan 9 22:08:45 limbo kernel: arp: 172.29.1.195 moved from b6:02:35:28:d0:b1 to d4:3d:7e:48:ab:9d on bridge0

DragonFly (net.link.bridge.debug=1):

There's no hints on how bridge should be set up also. The recipe that works for me flawlessly is:

1. Clone one bridge interface:
cloned_interfaces=bridge0

1. Bring child interfaces up:
ifconfig_re0=up

2. Set up inet on the bridge in first configuration directive:
ifconfig_bridge0=DHCP
or:
ifconfig_bridge0='inet 172.29.1.100/24'

3. Add other interfaces:
ifconfig_bridge0_alias0='addm re0 stp re0'

Just to pinpoint - FreeBSD guide page is fine about bridges except that DHCP will not work in aliases.
