IP Routing/Bridging/Off

This set of radio buttons controls how IP packets are handled for this inter-
face.

•

If set to IP Routing, then IP packets received on this interface are routed
to the correct interface on the router.

•

If set to IP Bridging, then any IP packets received on this interface are
forwarded to the router’s internal bridge. This setting makes this Ethernet
interface a member of the “IP Bridge Group” for this router.
