Subject/etc/network/interfaces: create bridge without IP address?
Message-ID<sTESK-4D2-9@gated-at.bofh.it>
Hi folks,

how can I define a bridge in /etc/network/interfaces without
assigning it an IP address and netmask? It is supposed to
be IPv6 link-layer only.

auto br0
iface br0 inet6 auto
	bridge-ports ...
	bridge-maxwait 0

Please note that you have to specify *something* in 'bridge-ports'
stanza.
