<div>For us on boot, we configure the systems init scripts to bring up br-ext and plug in the ethernet (or in our case bond) device into the external bridge. You should look at your specific distro for guidence here.

as a guide.</div>

<div>We do not assign any ip address to the interface attached to the bridge. If you assigned 0.0.0.0 netmask 0.0.0.0 you basically assigned every ip address in ipv4 to your interface, so anything that arps on your network for an ip address, you server is
going to respond say "hey that’s me".</div>

bridge. After that I set the IP of eth2 to 0.0.0.0 and then reboot the system. However br-ex was not up when system launched. So I turned on br-ex manually and then restart the network, but br-ex could not get ip from dhcp server. Thus I used “dhclient br-ex”
to manually acquire IP. Well till then everything worked fine, but in the evening the Network Node was continuously attacked by ICMP package. Iptraf showed the following messages:<u></u><u></u></font></font></font></span></p>
