In order of importance:
+ each cluster now uses private data structures (filtering and
local address tables) so you can treat them as fully independent
switches. This part of the work was supported by:
Cisco Systems, Inc. - NSITE lab, RTP, NC.
+ cleaned up the handling of configuration, so the system will behave
much better when real or pseudo devices are dynamically attached
or detached. It should also not panic anymore on systems with large
number of devices, closing a few existings PRs on the topic.
+ while at it, add support for VLAN. This means that a FreeBSD box
can now work as a real VLAN switch, with trunk interfaces etc.
As an example:
ifconfig vlan0 vlan 3 vlandev dc0
ifconfig vlan1 vlan 4 vlandev dc0
net.link.ether.bridge_cfg="vlan0:3,dc1:3,vlan1:4,dc1:4"
uses dc0 as a trunk interface, and dc1 and dc3 as ports on vlans 3 and 4
You get the idea...
NOTA BENE: by default bridge_cfg is initialised to "" so even if
you enable bridging, no packets will be bridged until you set the
list of interfaces on which you want this to happen.
+ large restructuring of the code, moving private vars and types from
bridge.h to bridge.c.
+ added a lot of comments to the code to explain how to use it.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc. The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation for which can be found at: http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/kernelconfig.html And in the config(8) man page. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you have to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/i386/conf sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation kernel. The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used. It is the successor of the ancient LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a pure reference and documentation file.
