Defining TAP interfaces in /etc/network/interfaces

[Andrew Wood <andrewjameswood@ymail.com>]

Im (slowly) trying to setup bridging and TAP interfaces to use with QEMU 
so each VM can have a 'real' IP on the network rather than NAT.


I now have a bridge setup (br1) using eth1 which Ive done in 
/etc/network/interfaces with:

auto eth1
auto br1
iface br1 inet dhcp
        bridge_ports eth1
        bridge_stp off
        bridge_fd 0
        bridge_maxwait 0


However I cannot work out how to add TAP interfaces to this bridge using 
that file. Currently I have to do it with the tunctl & brctl commands in 
a separate script.


It is possible to do it in /etc/network/interfaces ?

Thanks
Andrew
