			This covers how to add a bridge to a network interface in Fedora Core 13 to enable virtual server ethernet devices direct access to the physical ethernet device.

			''This is not a comprehensive HowTo''! It's strictly meant to solve one problem.

			= Remove NetworkManager =

			The <span class="code">NetworkManager</span> application is great for laptops and workstations, but really isn't appropriate for servers. The assumption here is that you are working on a server, of course. So to remove <span class="code">NetworkManager</span> and switch to using good old <span class="code">network</span>, run:

			<source lang="bash">
			# Disable and stop NetworkManager
			chkconfig NetworkManager off
			/etc/init.d/NetworkManager stop
			# Enable and start 'network'
			chkconfig network on
			/etc/init.d/network start
			</source>

			Optionally, you may want to simply remove NetworkManager:

			<source lang="bash">
			# Perhaps overkill, but this should get everything.
			yum remove NetworkManager NetworkManager-glib NetworkManager-gnome NetworkManager-devel NetworkManager-devel NetworkManager-glib NetworkManager-glib-devel NetworkManager-glib-devel NetworkManager-openconnect NetworkManager-openvpn NetworkManager-pptp NetworkManager-vpnc yum-NetworkManager-dispatcher
			</source>

			Be careful that you don't pull out important dependencies.

			= Setup Networking =

			Network configuration files on most or all Red Hat derivatives are found in the <span class="code">/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/</span> directory, so go there:

			<source lang="bash">
			cd /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/
			</source>

			There should already be an existing <span class="code">ifcfg-eth0</span>. Likewise, there will be an extra file with incrementing final numbers for each installed and recognized network card.
