Check Connection

This scenario shows how to create bridge interface offloading in a hardware switch.

Test ICMP Connectivity

Description

A bridge interface is created in DUT0 using a single Ethernet interface. Once it’s configured, the ‘Ping’ command is used to check if there’s connectivity between both nodes.

Scenario

Step 1: Set the following configuration in DUT1:

set interfaces ethernet eth0 address 192.168.100.2/24

Step 2: Set the following configuration in DUT0:

set interfaces bridge br0 address 192.168.100.1/24
set interfaces bridge br0 hardware-offload eth0 denied-macs DE:AD:BE:EF:6C:21
set interfaces ethernet eth0p0 bridge-group bridge br0

Step 3: Ping IP address 192.168.100.1 from DUT1:

admin@DUT1$ ping 192.168.100.1 local-address 192.168.100.2 count 1 size 56 timeout 1

Show output

PING 192.168.100.1 (192.168.100.1) from 192.168.100.2 : 56(84) bytes of data.
