how to add a route to other network ?
 
Hi all,

I have say two bridges on my machine,bridge br1 is on one network with ips 10.0.xx.xx and bridge br2 has an ip 192.168.xx.xx ,if i mount an ethernet card eth1 on br2.how can eth1 communicate with devices on br1?

do we need to add some additional route to system?


regards,
yashwanth

if your machine is directly connected to both network then it should already have a route to them..

what does the output of route -n look like ?


man route for information on manually adding routes to your system.

if eth1 is an ethernet card mounted on bridge ovirtbr0,then will that be able to ping eth0 ?
