Do this...
Type a name for the bridge.
Specify whether the firewall should be enabled between
networks on this bridge, by selecting one of the following:
Enabled. The firewall is enabled, and it will inspect
traffic between networks on the bridge, enforcing
firewall rules and SmartDefense protections. This is
the default value.
Disabled. The firewall is disabled between networks
on the bridge.
Specify how the firewall should handle non-IP protocol traffic
between networks on this bridge, by selecting one of the
following:
Block. The firewall will block all non-IP protocol
traffic on the bridge. This is the default value.
Pass. The firewall will allow all non-IP protocol traffic
on the bridge and process it as described in Using
Bridges on page 157.
Specify whether to enable STP for this bridge, by selecting one
of the following:
Enabled. STP is enabled.
Disabled. STP is disabled. This is the default value.
If you selected Enabled, the Bridge Priority field appears.
Select this bridge's priority.
The bridge's priority is combined with a bridged network's MAC
address to create the bridge's ID. The bridge with the lowest ID
is elected as the root bridge. The other bridges in the tree
calculate the shortest distance to the root bridge, in order to
eliminate loops in the topology and provide fault tolerance.
To increase the chance of this bridge being elected as the root
bridge, select a lower priority.
Note: If you select the same priority for all bridges, the root
bridge will be elected based on MAC address.
The default value is 32768.
This field only appears if STP is enabled.
