Hi guys!
I'm currently switching my internet gateway over from Arch Linux to Fedora 27 server. Everything but the network part went smooth (which in fact has never worked smoothly on Arch Linux either).
The problem is that I want to have Ethernet + Wifi bridged. I have 2 ethernet interfaces (enp4s0 is connected to the dsl-router, eno1is connected to my switch) and 1 wifi interface (wlp3s0). I can setup the network manually with the following commands:
Code:
ip link add name br0 type bridge
ip link set br0 up
ip link set eno1 up
ip link set enp4s0 up
ip link set eno1 master br0
ip addr add 192.168.42.1/24 dev br0
ip link set wlp3s0 up
ip addr add 192.168.1.2/24 dev enp4s0
route add default gw 192.168.1.1
systemctl start hostapd
Wifi is configured via hostapd and dnsmasq is running on br0 and serving dhcp-requests for Ethernet and Wifi. So this all works, but it's sort of a "hackish" solution. I want to use NetworkManager to do exactly this so it's all reboot safe and well integrated into the startup procedure. What I have so far is the following:
I disabled hostapd and wpa_supplicant (since I want everything to be managed by NetworkManager) and configured NetworkManager like this:
In /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eno1:
Code:
TYPE=Ethernet
DEVICE=eno1
BOOTPROTO=none
ONBOOT=yes
BRIDGE=br0
In /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-elp3s0:
Code:
ESSID=MyAP
MODE=Ap
MAC_ADDRESS_RANDOMIZATION=default
TYPE=Wireless
PROXY_METHOD=none
BROWSER_ONLY=no
DEFROUTE=yes
IPV4_FAILURE_FATAL=no
NAME=MyAP
UUID=27562abf-29c9-484f-975a-506e2607e2be
DEVICE=wlp3s0
ONBOOT=yes
BRIDGE=br0
KEY_MGMT=WPA-PSK
CHANNEL=1
In /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-br0:
Code:
DEVICE=br0
STP=no
TYPE=Bridge
PROXY_METHOD=none
BROWSER_ONLY=no
DEFROUTE=yes
IPV4_FAILURE_FATAL=no
IPV6INIT=yes
IPV6_AUTOCONF=yes
IPV6_DEFROUTE=yes
IPV6_FAILURE_FATAL=no
IPV6_ADDR_GEN_MODE=stable-privacy
NAME=br0
UUID=282f9a73-3a35-41ee-8a47-355f3d239006
IPADDR=192.168.42.1
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
ONBOOT=yes
BOOTPROTO=none
PREFIX=24
DNS1=127.0.0.1
The ethernet eno1 is working fine, my PCs can all access the internet via the router and the Wifi Accesspoint shows up on my mobile and also as member of the bridge:
Code:
brctl show
bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces
br0 8000.386077058e44 no eno1
wlp3s0
When I connect to my access point, I don't get past "authorization". I have no clue what the error might be, because even activation loglevel trace on NetworkManager is not giving me any hint of what is happening. No wifi-stuff is showing up there except for this:
Code:
NetworkManager[845]: <debug> [1513622581.6156] device[0x56082c366b10] (wlp3s0): wifi-scan: scanning requested but not allowed at this time
What am I doing wrong here? How can I even
see what's maybe going wrong? I'm really frustrated, because it feels like I'm
so close to the solution
