3.2.1 Basic Bridge Configuration

I. Enabling/disabling bridging
Perform the following configuration in system view.
Table 3-1 Enable/disable bridging
Enable bridging
Disable bridging
By default, bridging is disabled.
II. Enabling/disabling a bridge-set
As bridge-sets are independent, packets cannot be transmitted between ports that
belong to different bridge-sets. A packet that is received on a bridging port can only be
sent out another port in the same bridge-set. The interfaces on the router can join only
one bridge-set.
Perform the following configuration in system view.
Table 3-2 Enable/disable a bridge-set
Enable a specified bridge-set.
Disable a specified bridge-set.
III. Adding interfaces to a bridge-set
In addition to Ethernet interfaces (including subinterfaces), PPP/MP, HDLC, X.25, FR,
ATM, and dial (such as dialer and ISDN BRI/PRI) interfaces can be assigned to
bridge-sets. Refer to the following section for more information.
One interface on the router cannot be added to more than one bridge set.
Perform the following configuration in interface view.
