Webmin Network Configuration doesn't provide bridge configuration options

Adding an option for the BRIDGE= directive, which also perhaps forces the IPADDR and other network addresses to be undefined, would resolve this. i.e., in context:

NAME=eth1 BOOTPROTO=none TYPE=Ethernet HWADDR=20:CF:30:03:AB:DA DEVICE=eth1 BRIDGE=br0 DEFROUTE=yes ONBOOT=yes

I'm not sure how it's handled on Debian/Ubuntu, but I suspect it's also just a variable in the configuration file.

Closed (fixed)

Yeah, unfortunately the network config module doesn't yet support setting up bridges. I will add this to my TODO list for the next Webmin release, as it should be pretty easy..

The next Webmin release will include support for managing network bridges, and interfaces with no IP address (to which bridges must be connected).
