> DECnet On/Bridging/Off
This set of radio buttons controls how DECnet packets are handled for this
interface.
• If set to DECnet On, then DECnet packets received on this interface are
routed to the correct interface on the router.
• If set to DECnet Bridging, then any DECnet packets received on this
interface are forwarded to the router’s internal bridge. This setting makes
this WAN interface a member of the “DECnet Bridge Group” for this
router.
v Note: The DECnet Bridging radio button will be grayed out unless
bridging has been turned on globally for the device using the Main Bridging
Configuration Dialog Box (under Global/Bridging) and locally on this inter-
face using the Bridging: WAN Dialog Box (under WAN/Bridging).
• If it is set to DECnet Off, then any DECnet packets received on this
interface are discarded.
