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: $ScriptInstallUpdate global-wait; / 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`.
