Set Up a Bridge to Your ISP's Network Using a Port Group

or VLAN Tag Group
Some devices, such as an IPTV, cannot function behind the router's network address translation (NAT)
service or firewall. Based on what your Internet service provider (ISP) requires, for the device to connect to
the ISP's network directly, you can enable the bridge between the device and the router's Internet port or
add new VLAN tag groups to the bridge.
Note
If your ISP provides instructions for how to set up a bridge for IPTV and Internet
service, follow those instructions.
Set Up a Bridge to Your ISP's Network Using a Port Group
For some devices, such as an IPTV, that are connected to the router's Ethernet LAN port or WiFi network,
your ISP might require you to use a port group to set up a bridge to the router's Internet interface and,
effectively, your ISP's network.
A bridge with a port group prevents packets that are sent between the device and the router's Internet port
from being processed through the router's Network Address Translation (NAT) service.
For an IPTV-specific procedure, see
