wlanpi-bridge (Bridge Mode)

Mode to bridge WLAN Pi interfaces

Overview

Bridge mode that creates a bridge interface using networkd to configure network interfaces and attaches the following interfaces to the bridge interface:

• eth0 (physical interface on WLAN Pi)
• eth1 (interface created when iPhone attached via USB)
• usb1 (interface created when Android phone connected)

The main use-case for this mode is to allow a phone's data connection to be shared with a device hanging off eth0 of a WLAN Pi.

Use the front panel menu system of the WLAN Pi to switch between Classic mode and Bridge mode (Home > Modes > Bridge > Confirm)

Note: Once in bridge mode, the only way of accessing the WLAN Pi with SSH of web access is via OTG mode via usb0 (169.254.42.1)
