in this case you are creating STP loop and enable of STP will disable either eth1 or eth0. what are you trying achieve ? Is it just sending packets over both ethernet interfaces ? you better bond those two ethernet interfaces. you need switch configuration for proper incoming traffic flow. __ Tharindu "Rukshan" Bamunuarachchi You've got a loop in your Ethernet network and spanning tree is disabled. The surprising bit is that you manage to get any packets through at all.
Ethernet packets don't have a TTL field, so if they end up in a loop (for example br0 -> eth0 -> LAN -> eth1 -> br0 -> ...) they just keep getting repeated. brctl br0 stp on should fix your network. I suspect you're trying to do bonding though, which (as far as I know, having never played with it myself) is configured completely differently and might require support from the switch.

thank you all today i tried to bring STP on it seems better now i did some filtering also thanks again best regards. --------------- jiangtao
