I have some experience.
It seems that you should explicitely allow bridging in iptables as well
as in ebtables.
So, in addition to my bridge roules in ebtables I also have this rule in
iptables:
iptables -A FORWARD -i br0 -o br0 -j ACCEPT
Otherwise, it could block bridging by later rules or the policy.

Hi All!
I need to deploy a bridge firewall using linux kernel 2.6. I had success
using kernel 2.4 plus br-nf patch. But the configuration does not work with
kernel 2.6.
If the default policy for the iptables FORWARD chain is ACCEPT I have a
bridge. If iptables FORWARD chain is DROP I have an insulator (no packet
flows). Any hint?
I did some google search and in many places they say "kernel 2.6 is not
recommended", "no luck with kernel 2.6", etc.
Any link to a success story of a bridge firewall with kernel 2.6? Any
personal experience?
Thanks in advance,
Edésio
