Manage ports in bridge
======================
[◀ Go back to main README](../README.md)
Description
-----------
These scripts are supposed to handle interfaces and switching them from
one bridge to another.
Requirements and installation
-----------------------------
Just install the scripts:
$ScriptInstallUpdate bridge-port-to-default,bridge-port-toggle;
Configuration
-------------
The configuration goes to ports' comments (`/ interface bridge port`).
/ interface bridge port add bridge=br-guest comment="default=dhcp-client, alt=br-guest" disabled=yes interface=en1;
/ interface bridge port add bridge=br-intern comment="default=br-intern, alt=br-guest" interface=en2;
/ interface bridge port add bridge=br-guest comment="default=br-guest, extra=br-extra" interface=en3;
Also dhcp client can be handled:
/ ip dhcp-client add comment="toggle with bridge port" disabled=no interface=en1;
There is also global configuration:
* `BridgePortTo`: specify the configuration to be applied by default
Install [global-wait](global-wait.md) and add a scheduler to start with
default setup on system startup:
/ system scheduler add name=bridge-port-to-default on-event="/ system script { run global-wait; run bridge-port-to-default; }" start-time=startup;
Usage and invocation
--------------------
The usage examples show what happens with the configuration from above.
Running the script `bridge-port-to-default` applies all configuration given
with `default=`:
/ system script run bridge-port-to-default;
For the three interfaces we get this configuration:
* The special value `dhcp-client` enables the dhcp client for interface `en1`. The bridge port entry is disabled.
* Interface `en2` is put in bridge `br-intern`.
* Interface `en3` is put in bridge `br-guest`.
Running the script `bridge-port-toggle` toggles to configuration given
with `alt=`:
/ system script run bridge-port-toggle;
* Interface `en1` is put in bridge `br-guest`, dhcp client for the interface is disabled.
* Interface `en2` is put in bridge `br-guest`.
* Interface `en3` is unchanged, stays in bridge `br-guest`.
Running the script `bridge-port-toggle` again toggles back to configuration
given with `default=`.
More configuration can be loaded by setting `BridgePortTo`:
:set BridgePortTo "extra";
/ system script run bridge-port-to-default;
* Interfaces `en1` and `en2` are unchanged.
* Interface `en3` is put in bridge `br-intern`.
