Note
Duplicate bridge link or router interface numbers results in only the lowest
numbered port being initialized.
Statistics Bridge link statistics for the WAN bridge link show the status of Mixed LAN links as
Both TB and SRB Active when the WAN bridge link is configured as
BOTH_SR_AND_TB, and the Ethernet port successfully initialized.
