Manage ports in bridge
======================
[⬅️ Go back to main README](../../README.md)
> **Info**: This module can not be used on its own but requires the base
> installation. See [main README](../../README.md) for details.
Description
-----------
This module and its functio are are supposed to handle interfaces and
switching them from one bridge to another.
Requirements and installation
-----------------------------
Just install the module:
$ScriptInstallUpdate mod/bridge-port-to;
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;
Add a scheduler to start with default setup on system startup:
$ScriptInstallUpdate global-wait;
/system/scheduler/add name=bridge-port-to on-event="/system/script/run global-wait; :global BridgePortTo; \$BridgePortTo default;" start-time=startup;
Usage and invocation
--------------------
The usage examples show what happens with the configuration from above.
Running the function `$BridgePortTo` with parameter `default` applies all
configuration given with `default=`:
$BridgePortTo default;
For the three interfaces we get this configuration:
* The special value `dhcp-client` enables the dhcp client for interface `en1`. The bridge port entry is disabled.
* Interface `en2` is put in bridge `br-intern`.
* Interface `en3` is put in bridge `br-guest`.
Running the function `$BridgePortTo` with parameter `alt` applies all
configuration given with `alt=`:
$BridgePortTo alt;
* Interface `en1` is put in bridge `br-guest`, dhcp client for the interface is disabled.
* Interface `en2` is put in bridge `br-guest`.
* Interface `en3` is unchanged, stays in bridge `br-guest`.
Running the function `$BridgePortTo` with parameter `extra` applies another
configuration:
$BridgePortTo extra;
* Interfaces `en1` and `en2` are unchanged.
* Interface `en3` is put in bridge `br-intern`.
