As can be seen, my server runs with the ethernet card called eno1
OS: Ubuntu 16.04

Seems similar issue was there before – https://sourceforge.net/p/webadmin/bugs/3955/

perhaps additional NIC check’s should be added, as most realtek card for instance have RExxxx as NIC reference, and intel has enoXXXX

You can manually run the bridge creation tool providing your correct interface name:

cd /usr/share/webmin/net/

This would be in /usr/libexec/webmin/net on CentOS systems.

Make sure the create-net-bridge.pl program is available in that directory…if it’s not, copy it over from ../server-manager. Then run it:

perl ./create-net-bridge.pl --interface eno1 --bridge br0

Then restart the network to make the changes take effect.
