Bridging - Secure Computing SG300 User Manual

Alongside the wireless interface, check Bridged and select LAN from the Firewall Class
pull down menu. Click Finish.
Note
If your LAN interface was previously configured to obtain an IP address automatically
from a DHCP server, the SG unit now uses the MAC address of the wireless device when
obtaining an IP address. You may have to update your DHCP server accordingly.
Configure each wireless client with the Channel, ESSID, WPA Key and WPA
Encryption method.

Bridging

The SG may be configured to bridge between network interfaces. When two or more
network interfaces are bridged, the SG unit learns and keeps track of which hosts are
reside on either side of the bridge, and automatically directs network traffic appropriately.
One advantage of bridging network interfaces is that hosts on either side of the bridge
can communicate with hosts on the other side without having to specify a route to the
other network via the SG unit.
