Hi,
I'm working on a network where I have 13 VLANs (using 802.1q). I need
to build a transition escenario bridging the VLANs with a Linux
Bridge. My Linux box has the trunk incoming from eth1, so to bridge
them I use:

brctl addbr superbridge
vconfig set_name_type VLAN_PLUS_VID_NO_PAD
for ((i = 200; i <= 212; i++)); do
 vconfig add eth1 $i
 ip link set vlan$i
 brctl addif superbridge vlan$i
done
ip link superbrige up

I think that should work but I want to hear another opinions, advices
or just tell me if that wouldn't work.

Regards,
 Diego
