General Discussion / Re: Setting up a Bridge - Multiple NICs to act like a switch, like a SOHO router

Answering the OP's question:
To bridge 2 NICs you have to define an interface for each NIC, for example NIC2 and NIC3.

I found that you can have mixes of IP v4 configurations: NIC2 with a fixed address and NIC3 with "None", or both NICs with a fixed address.
As Franco warned, when you assign a fixed address to both, you can also tell DHCP to listen to both interfaces and it can issue leases on both interfaces.
However... here I was surprised... it only reports the leases on ONE of the interfaces.
