Hi,
I have two NICs inside my OMV (eth0 and eth1). I added a TAP device (tap0), which i want to bridge with eth1. I can do so with a small script that uses ifconfig [1]. But then OMV gets confused and shows eth1 still configured as STATIC device. Sometimes it also shows a second tap device which doesnt exist, according to ifconfig. br0 is shown by the way, but unable to configure via the GUI Menu.
What is the right way to keep eth1 unconfigured and to set up a permanent bridge which then could also be used for the iptables rules?
