Perhaps I haven't stand fine. I stand you have an external iface (that
is a wifi interface) and you want to connect to your computer using an
VPN (OpenVPN) and then access to your internal network. Am I right?
If I right, you don't need bridge configuration.
When you configure OpenVPN server, this will add a new iface to your
server, then, you only need to allow routing from your VPN network to
your internal network (allow routing and allowing with iptables the
traffic).
The problem that you will encounter is the netbios broadcast frames that
don't allow you explore de routed networks (internal network), but using
direct acces via IP you will access without problems to your samba
shared (windows shares).

I think i gonna need bridging there(?)
Roger
Think in a bridge as a kind of switch. It works at OSI Level 2 (Ethernet)
not at upper levels (IP).
The IP you assign to bridge must be the IP you need to access to the IP
subnet you need to access from the bridge interface.
The first question is: Do you really need a bridge?
If you don't need to connect networks at Ethernet level, you don't need
it.
Perhaps I don't stand fine your required configuration, but I can't see
that you really need bridges.
Can you explain a bit more your wanted configuration?
Regards

Hello,
I think about bridging the firewall on the next install. Unfortunately,
the same firewall routes to 2 other subnets:
- 1 external
- 1 DMZ
Both have separate IP-Ranges. In fact, with the internal Network, i have
3
Subnets (internal-> eth0, external -> eth1, dmz -> eth2)
I would like to now:
Can i use this combination:
1 bridge eth0->eth1
1 bridge eth0->eth2
and: which ip-adress does the bridge need? is there any ip possible or
which one is to set preferably on the bridge?
Thanks for your replies.
Roger
