[Bug 1430675] Re: fails to set up a bridged network interface

 

Mine is an old install too.

In my case, I have 3 nics. Nothing in interfaces.d/

br0 is my lan
br1 wan (behind router)
br2 is not connected, and no, I don't want an ip address there unless is really necessary .

Here is my interfaces:

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet manual

auto eth1
iface eth1 inet manual

auto eth2
iface eth2 inet manual

auto br0
iface br0 inet static
    address 10.11.101.200/24
    bridge_ports eth0
    bridge_stp off
    bridge_fd 3
    bridge_hello 2
    up route add -net 10.99.97.0/24 gw 10.11.101.254
    up route add -net 10.8.0.0/24 gw 10.11.101.254
    up route add -net 192.168.0.0/22 gw 10.11.101.254
    up route add -net 192.168.4.0/24 gw 10.11.101.254
    up route add -net 192.168.8.0/24 gw 10.11.101.254
    up route add default gw 10.11.101.254 metric 200
    dns-nameservers 10.11.101.254 10.0.0.1
    dns-search lxc bensa.ar flacso.org.ar lan

auto br1
iface br1 inet dhcp
    bridge_ports eth1
    bridge_stp off
    bridge_fd 3
    bridge_hello 2

auto br2
iface br2 inet manual
    bridge_ports eth2
    bridge_stp off
    bridge_fd 3
    bridge_hello 2


BTW, at work I have another vivid host (only one interface) where the bridge goes up as it should:

# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).

# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# The primary network interface
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet manual

auto br0
iface br0 inet static
    address 192.168.0.11
    netmask 255.255.252.0
    gateway 192.168.0.1
    bridge_ports eth0
    dns-nameservers 192.168.0.1 192.168.0.254
    dns-search flacso.org.ar


For now, at home, I've made a workaround for this problem with this snipped in rc.local:

ip link show dev br0 || ifup br0
ip link show dev br1 || ifup br1
ip link show dev br2 || ifup br2

Title:
  fails to set up a bridged network interface

Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I have a simple bridge set up in /etc/network/interfaces so that the
  virtual machines running on that machine can use it and be on the same
  subnet. But with systemd it's not started on boot. The bridge is
  configured as follows

  auto br0
  iface br0 inet dhcp
  	bridge_ports eth0
  	bridge_stp off
  	bridge_maxwait 5

  reproduced now on a fresh vm.
