Hi list,

I am using bridge-utils with uClinux having kernel-2.4.19. All the commands with brctl is working fine except the showmacs. when i execute the command

/>brctl showmacs test

bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces

It does not show any learned mac, So the bride(test) is not functioning properly for unicast packets. Bridging option is already enabled in kernel.

Any help to proceed is welcome

With Thanks & Regards
Kanhu

What architecture? and are perhaps bridge-utils thought it had sysfs support in the build, but it 2.4.19 doesn't have that.
