→‎Another Problem Case

iptables -A FORWARD -d 255.255.255.255 -j ACCEPT

to fix the issue.

== Another Problem Case ==

I had setup a bridge and got the same problem, but iptables was setup well. In my case the problem was lying in /proc/sys/net/bridge/.

Everything inside had value "1". Changing them to "0" solved the problem. This stopped ARP and bridge packets from being

passed through the FORWARD chain. These settings can be placed inside /etc/sysctl.conf (Debian) so that they are persistent.
