2.2.5 Bridge
The bridge mode screen allows you to set your Broadband router to bridge mode and allows you
to assign an IP address for management purposes. When the bridge mode is selected, the router
in effect becomes a switch, transferring packets from the WAN port to the LAN port and vice
versa without any NAT involvement. In bridge mode, the original WAN MAC is ignored, and the
original LAN MAC address will be used as the MAC address. These values will be restored when
you set the device to operating modes other than the bridge mode.

Description
Enter an IP Address for the Bridge Mode. This IP address allows
you to access the web-based management should you decide to
switch back to the router mode.
