Hi forum,

 

I want use my R1 board as a switch and if possible to run some services as the same if possible.

 

Now when I look in /etc/network

I do see a lot of different .conf files in that folder, but I do not really know how to use or them.

 

Therefore my questions.

1. can I use my board as switch and can I run as the same services.

2. How do I use these config files and how do I interpret the results.

 

Thx,blub4747

 

Hi blub,

 

Good choice to call yourself blub, you have to dive deep   well, just 3 pages... https://forum.armbian.com/topic/3476-bpi-r1-with-new-b53-switch-driver-dsa/

and no, there is no short answer. Because if you ain't understand, you cannot fix it.

Want or need?

 

OpenWRT/LEDE has some good info on the mapping of the switch ports, so that might be helpful...

Anyways - even for a dev, roll up your sleeves - that board isn't for noobs...

Hi just wanted to update this post and let you guys know that I did look at openwrt for for my board.

And that I was aware that there was a version of openwrt years back and I that I thought that there would be further development for it.

Turns out that the version of the openwrt I found seems to be top of the line.

very nice!

It's the OpenWRT link I posted above...

sounded a bit outdated to me: As of Nov 10, 2015 the trunk version of OpenWrt does not boot...
