Hi,

Is it possible to do something like that in a system configuration?:
> ip link add lan0 type bridge
> ip link set dev eth0 master lan0
> ip addr add 192.168.1.5/24 dev lan0
> ip route add default via 192.168.1.1 dev lan0

I've tried it with something like that (with the IP addresses and "eth0"
changed):
> (service static-networking-service-type
>   (list
>     (static-networking
>       (addresses (list (network-address
>                                         (device "lan0")
>                                         (value "192.168.1.5/24"))))
>        (links (list (network-link (name "lan0")
>                                (type 'bridge)
>                                (arguments '()))
>                                (network-link
>                                (name "eth0")
>                                (type #f)
>                                (arguments '("master" "lan0")))))
>     (name-servers '("192.168.10.1"))
>     (routes (list (network-route (destination "default")
>                                  (gateway "192.168.1.1")))))))
but the issue is that the bridge isn't even created.

Did I do something wrong, or is that configuration not supported?

Denis.
