two lan interfaces and one network

[peric0]

Dear, I have a machine with 3 interfaces, the idea is that one is wan and the other two have the same ip LAN.
The two LAN interfaces must have the same ip and behave like a switch. This will be the gateway of my network and would provide dhcp and dns services.
Do not know if this may be creating a trunk interface or a bridge.

thanks

You will want to study Section 6.9 of the FAQ as this discusses bridging.

I assume you are thinking about creating VLAN's to simulate multiple switches. Before getting too far, you will need to verify that your Ethernet interfaces can support VLAN's. Not all network interfaces do. The first place to go is to study the manpage for the interfaces shown in your dmesg(8) or ifconfig(8) output.
