本文介绍了一种在Linux环境下创建并配置虚拟tap接口的方法，并解决了这些接口在桥接时总是处于禁用状态的问题。文章指出，要使tap接口保持活跃状态，必须有一个应用程序持续占用该设备。

tap interfaces always disabled in linux bridge

I have a physical interface eth0, and I want to create two virtual interfaces and bridge them with eth0. For this purpose I do:

#Create the virtual interfaces
tunctl -t tap0
tunctl -t tap1
ifconfig tap0 up
ifconfig tap1 up

#Create the bridge
brctl addbr br0
brctl stp br0 off
brctl addif br0 eth0
brctl addif br0 tap0
brctl addif br0 tap1

#Turning up the bridge
ifconfig br0 up

However my problem if that the tap interfaces always appear disabled in the bridge, and no traffic flows to them.

$brctl show br0
bridge name bridge id       STP enabled interfaces
br0     8000.080027cabeba   no          eth2
                                        tap0
                                        tap1

$brctl showstp br0

Is there any way to set the tap interfaces in forwarding state? I do not understand why they are not because STP is disabled.

Cheers
