   2 # mako template function to create a bridge
   3 #
   4 # mako defs provide the advantage of declaring predefined functions in
   5 # separate files.
   6 #
   7 # Below is an example that illustrates how to define such functions and use
   8 # them in the /etc/network/interfaces file to create bridges
   9 #
  10 # This file defines a function makebr to create a bridge. The arguments to the
  11 # function are vlan and ip address of the bridge.
  12 #
  13 # The default directory for template functions is
  14 # /etc/network/ifupdown2/templates/. Copy this file under the template
  15 # dir (create the directory if does not exist)
  16 #
  17 # To use this template function in /etc/network/interfaces, add the following
  18 # to the /etc/network/interfaces file:
  19 #
  20 # <%namespace name="bridge" file="/bridge_template"/>
  21 #
  22 # ${bridge.makebr(1096, "10.0.23.2/24")}
  23 # ${bridge.makebr(1097, "10.0.23.3/24")}
  24 #
  25 #
  26
  27 <%def name="makebr(vlan, addr)">
  28 auto br${vlan}
  29 iface br${vlan} inet static
  30     address ${addr}
  31     bridge-ports swp1.${vlan} swp2.${vlan}
  32     bridge-stp on
