Bridging

[Anton Voyl]

Hello,

Is it possible to bridge an interface that is managed by connman (e.g. wlan0) and an interface that is not managed by connman?

Does connman provide something like:
brctl addbr bridge
brctl addif bridge wlan0
brctl addif bridge other

Would it be possible to have connman manage the bridge?

Thank you for your attention, and regards,

Anton Voyl

If you enable tethering, ConnMan will set up a bridge and add all
necessary interfaces to the bridge on a technology basis. For WiFi only
AP capable interfaces will be added. The same bridge is used across
different technologies which means that connected Bluetooth PANU, WiFi
stations, ethernet and USB devices can connect to each other. If there
is a ConnMan service connected that provides an uplink Internet
connection, a Linux kernel masquerading rule takes care of NAT.
