Manage ports in bridge
Description
These scripts are supposed to handle interfaces and switching them from one bridge to another.
Requirements and installation
Just install the scripts:
$ScriptInstallUpdate bridge-port-to-default,bridge-port-toggle;
Configuration
The configuration goes to ports' comments (/ interface bridge port).
/ interface bridge port add bridge=br-guest comment="default=dhcp-client, alt=br-guest" disabled=yes interface=en1;
/ interface bridge port add bridge=br-intern comment="default=br-intern, alt=br-guest" interface=en2;
/ interface bridge port add bridge=br-guest comment="default=br-guest, extra=br-extra" interface=en3;
Also dhcp client can be handled:
/ ip dhcp-client add comment="toggle with bridge port" disabled=no interface=en1;
There is also global configuration:
BridgePortTo: specify the configuration to be applied by default
Add a scheduler to start with default setup on system startup:
/ system scheduler add name=bridge-port-to-default on-event="/ system script run bridge-port-to-default;" start-time=startup;
Usage and invocation
The usage examples show what happens with the configuration from above.
Running the script bridge-port-to-default applies all configuration given
with default=:
/ system script run bridge-port-to-default;
For the three interfaces we get this configuration:
- The special value
dhcp-clientenables the dhcp client for interfaceen1. The bridge port entry is disabled. - Interface
en2is put in bridgebr-intern. - Interface
en3is put in bridgebr-guest.
Running the script bridge-port-toggle toggles to configuration given
with alt=:
/ system script run bridge-port-toggle;
- Interface
en1is put in bridgebr-guest, dhcp client for the interface is disabled. - Interface
en2is put in bridgebr-guest. - Interface
en3is unchanged, stays in bridgebr-guest.
Running the script bridge-port-toggle again toggles back to configuration
given with default=.
More configuration can be loaded by setting BridgePortTo:
:set BridgePortTo "extra";
/ system script run bridge-port-to-default;
- Interfaces
en1anden2are unchanged. - Interface
en3is put in bridgebr-intern.
