To set up a bridge network on Ubuntu Linux 14.04 and 16.04 LTS, follow these steps:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Install the necessary packages:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
    \n
    <\/div>\n
    sudo apt-<\/span>get<\/span> update<\/span>
    \nsudo apt-<\/span>get<\/span> install bridge-<\/span>utils
    \n<\/code><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
      \n
    1. Create a bridge interface file at \/etc\/network\/interfaces<\/code>:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
      \n
      <\/div>\n
      # Bridge interface<\/span>
      \nauto<\/span> br0
      \niface br0 inet static<\/span>
      \n address <IP address>
      \n netmask <netmask>
      \n gateway <gateway>
      \n bridge_ports eth0
      \n bridge_fd 9<\/span>
      \n bridge_hello 2<\/span>
      \n bridge_maxage 12<\/span>
      \n bridge_stp off<\/span>
      \n<\/code><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

      Here, <IP address><\/code>, <netmask><\/code>, and <gateway><\/code> should be replaced with your network’s IP address, netmask, and gateway respectively. eth0<\/code> is the physical interface that will be added to the bridge.<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Restart the networking service:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
        \n
        <\/div>\n
        sudo \/etc\/init.d\/networking restart
        \n<\/code><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
          \n
        1. Verify the bridge status:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
          \n
          <\/div>\n
          brctl show<\/span>
          \n<\/code><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

          This should show the bridge status, including the bridge name, ID, and the interfaces that are added to the bridge.<\/p>\n

          Note: These steps are for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and 16.04 LTS. The exact steps may differ on other Ubuntu versions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
