I set up a CentOS6-XEN4-Server according to instructions. Now I want to set up bridges - first manually: brctl addbr test - but this fails with: 'add Bridge failed: Package not installed' Googling about that I tried to manually modprobe bridge which triggers an error that is caused-according to dmesg by: bridge: Unknown symbol ipv6_dev_get_saddr (err 0) modinfo bridge reveals that the bridge-modules depends on stp,llc and ipv6. I do not want IPv6, I do not need IPv6 and have blacklisted IPv6. • Is there any way to get brctl running without enabling IPv6?

• Why is that depency there at all? Update 2014-05-14 I found this to be a general CentOS 6/RH 6 problem. It also applies to the bonding module. The accepted answer describes the root-cause - so this problem will also arise on comparable kernel-versions and is not restricted to CentOS/RedHat/Scentific Linux 6. It has been discussed on the kernel ML and the conclusion was that users shouldn't disable ipv6 anymore. Quoted from The workaround for this situation is to not blacklist the ipv6 module, but rather set its disable_ipv6 module option.

Add Bridge Failed Package Not Installed. Even with a network install, CentOS 7 did not install. And configuration on CentOS 7 / Red Hat 7 along with KVM Linux.

That way the code gets loaded, but no ipv6 functionality is registered with the kernel so user space can't accesses it. Update 2014-05-14: The correct workaround seems to be: • Un-blacklist ipv6 and net-pf-10 • create /etc/modprobe.d/ipv6.conf with the following content: options ipv6 disable_ipv6=1.

The brctl command is found is the bridge-utils package What is your goal and network topology? 1# Are you trying to load balance on Layer 2 between two Ethernet interfaces on your Arch Box connected to a Managed Switch that supports Layer 2 bridging?

You know, arno-iptables-firewall found in the AUR can do setup #2 for you. Pacman -S bridge-utils brctl addbr br0 ifconfig br0 192.168.5.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 up brctl addif br0 eth0 brctl addif br0 eth1 ifconfig eth0 0.0.0.0 up ifconfig eth1 0.0.0.0 up Report back.

The bridge-utils should have no problem connecting any Ethernet, tap, tun, or ppp device to the bridge. However, you can not attach a Wireless device to a bridge. To do that you need to use some iptables magic; let me know if you need to do this. Now you configure iptables to NAT between whatever is your WAN gateway and the Bridge device i.e.

Br0 Then configure your Clients with the Default GW as the Bridge device with IPv4 address 192.168.5.1.
