+=================
+Ethernet Bridging
+=================
+
+In order to use the Ethernet bridging functionality, you'll need the
+userspace tools.
+
+Documentation for Linux bridging is on:
+ http://www.linuxfoundation.org/collaborate/workgroups/networking/bridge
+
+The bridge-utilities are maintained at:
+ git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/shemminger/bridge-utils.git
+
+Additionally, the iproute2 utilities can be used to configure
+bridge devices.
+
+If you still have questions, don't hesitate to post to the mailing list
+(more info https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/bridge).
