Ethernet Bridge + netfilter Howto
v0.8, July 2005
Setting up an ethernet bridge gives us the chance to integrate a surveying and/or regulating instance transparently into an existing network. This setup requires no changes to the logical network topology. It is accomplished by plugging the ethernet bridge in the physical network topology between the network itself and the routing instance (that piece of hardware connected to the Internet).
This Howto is available in
other formats.
Preferably downloadable:
documentation tarball.
You may find this Howto as part of the
Linux Documentation Project.

German version, then!

Unfortunately, the linux documentation project does not
respond actively to update requests. This results in an outdated
version of the on www.tldp.org site. Use this site instead, if you
want to stick with the most actual version of the HOWTO.
Blame the tldp people.
