From a clean booted Lucid server (cloud image or otherwise).
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
sudo apt-get install bridge-utils dnsmasq-base ruby
Install the attached files (bradd.sh, create-bridges.rb) in the home directory and run
sudo ./create-bridges.rb 25 50
System will create bridges up to br25006e (the 28th bridge) and then fail with
dnsmasq: no interface with address 2a02:1348:134:401b:24:19ff:fe25:6e
You can start the sequence again with another set of bridges
sudo ./create-bridges.rb 26 50
'26' is the prefix differentiator and '50' is the number of bridges you want.

You can start the sequence again with another set of bridges

'26' is the prefix differentiator and '50' is the number of bridges you want.
It doesn't appear to fail again.
