Configuring Point-to-Point Bridging
Log into the router via the craft port and enter the enable (privileged) mode by typing enable and
entering the password (if enable passwords are configured). Next, enter the global configuration
mode by typing config t . From the global configuration mode, enter the bridge command and
specify a bridge group number. (The valid range for a bridge group number is 1 through 255.)
Specify the protocol for the bridge group at the end of the command. The bridging protocol must
match the protocol used on the remote NetVanta or compatible router. In this example, the bridge
group 1 is being configured to use the IEEE bridging protocol.
Bridge Command Example Syntax
Configuring Bridge Interfaces
1. All interfaces that are involved in the bridging process (WAN & LAN) must belong to the
appropriate bridge group. (Refer to the previous section, Configuring Point-to-Point Bridging,
for details on creating a bridge group.) Include an interface in the bridge group by using the
bridge command while in the interface configuration mode. To enter the interface
configuration mode, enter interface <interface type interface slot/port> from the global
configuration prompt. For example, interface eth 0/1.
Assigning Ethernet 0/1 Interface to Bridge Group 1
2. The bridge command must be used on the sub-interface to configure bridging interfaces on
WAN ports implementing Frame Relay signaling. Enter the sub-interface configuration mode
by typing interface frame relay X.Y from the global configuration mode prompt (where X is the
frame relay interface number and Y is the sub-interface – usually the DLCI – number). For
example, interface frame-relay 1.16. For PPP, the virtual interface must be included in the
bridge group (e.g., interface ppp 1).
