> I've got a machine I'm trying to use to break a /24 into a few smaller
> groups. I've got it options BRIDGE in the kernel, four ethernet cards
> (mx0, pn0, ed0, ed1), and need to figure out the right way to do this:

sysctl -w net.link.ether.bridge=1 is necessary to enable
bridging, and you need to set the address only on one of the
interfaces (if you want an IP for the bridge at all).
