Packets are forwarded based on Ethernet +address, rather than IP address (like a router). Since forwarding is +done at Layer 2, all protocols can go transparently through a bridge. +The Linux bridge code implements a subset of the ANSI/IEEE 802.1d +standard. + +.. note:: Spanning Tree Protocol is not enabled by default in VyOS. + :ref:`stp` can be easily enabled if needed. + +************* +Configuration +************* + +Common interface configuration +============================== + +.. cmdinclude:: ../_include/interface-common-with-dhcp.txt + :var0: bridge + :var1: br0 + +Member Interfaces +================= + +.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces bridge <interface> member interface <member> + + Assign `<member>` interface to bridge `<interface>`. A completion + helper will help you with all allowed interfaces which can be + bridged.

Each interface is + associated with a port (number) in the STP code. Each has a priority + and a cost, that is used to decide which is the shortest path to + forward a packet. The lowest cost path is always used unless the + other path is down. If you have multiple bridges and interfaces then + you may need to adjust the priorities to achieve optimium + performance. + + +.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces bridge <interface> member interface <member> + cost <cost> + + Path `<cost>` value for Spanning Tree Protocol.

The basic function of +STP is to prevent bridge loops and the broadcast radiation that results +from them. Spanning tree also allows a network design to include backup +links providing fault tolerance if an active link fails. + +.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces bridge <interface> stp + + Enable spanning tree protocol. STP is disabled by default. + + +.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces bridge <interface> forwarding-delay <delay> + + Spanning Tree Protocol forwarding `<delay>` in seconds (default: 15). + + Forwarding delay time is the time spent in each of the Listening and + Learning states before the Forwarding state is entered.
