My example was incomplete. To see the bug one should of course first
add an interface to the bridge:
# brctl addif bridge1 eth0
and observe that the bridge id remains unset:
# brctl show
bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces
bridge1 8000.000000000000 no eth0
If bridge1 had been created without specifying the mac address the
result is as expected:
# brctl show
bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces
bridge1 8000.28d244547cdb no eth0
Cheers,
Tom
