| 08:36 | topi`> | I'm still confused about the whole ethernet switch thing. Can any CF Pro owner provide me with a list of "ip addr" and other commands of a working config they know? |
| 08:36 | topi`> | I can then modify it to suit my needs |
| 08:36 | topi`> | what's with this lan6@eth1? Is it some special lan port that is actually receiving/sending the data to the "eth1" interface? |
| 08:37 | topi`> | but there are 6 ethernet ports on the right side of the board, so I suspect lan6 is one of those... |
| 08:39 | vpeter> | topi`: I can run command in 9 or 10 hours. |
| 08:42 | vpeter> | This lan6 is somehow specific. In DTS it has comment "88E1512 external phy". And it an operate only as gbit speed. |
| 09:01 | topi`> | vpeter: can I just ignore the lan6 by not connecting anything to the last (rightmost) port? |
| 09:02 | topi`> | the 4.4 kernel seems to automagically know these lan1-6 ports are somehow bound to eth1 |
| 09:02 | topi`> | since "ip addr" shows them as lan1@eth1 |
| 09:03 | vpeter> | Sure you can ignore it :-) |
| 09:09 | topi`> | [ 404.672926] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): lan1: link becomes ready |
| 09:09 | topi`> | I think I am getting somewhere here... |
| 09:10 | topi`> | YES! the other side responds. |
| 09:10 | topi`> | I didn't have to configure a bridge, actually... |
| 09:10 | topi`> | what I needed to do, was to leave the ip config of eth1 emtpy, not touch it at all |
| 09:10 | topi`> | just bring it up |
| 09:12 | topi`> | also, I need to kill NetworkManager because it tries to be helpful... too helpful |
| 09:45 | vpeter> | I'm happy for you :) |
