Figure 1. Cisco router with serial interface, configured as PPP Half Bridge.

For example, the customer site is assigned the addresses 192.168.1.0/24 through 192.168.1.1/24. The address 192.168.1.1/24 is also the default gateway for the remote network. The above settings remove any routing/forwarding intelligence from the CPE. The associ- ated Cisco configuration will set serial interface (s0) to accommodate half bridging for the above example.

Authentication is optional under PPP. In a point-to-point leased- line link, incoming customer facilities are usually fixed in nature, there- fore authentication is generally not required. If the foreign device requires authentication via PAP or CHAP, the PPP software will respond with default Peer-ID consisting of the units Ethernet MAC address and a password which consists of the unitÕs Ethernet MAC address.

Some networking systems do not define network numbers in pack- ets sent out over a network. If a packet does not have a specific desti- nation network number, a router will assume that the packet is set up for the local segment and will not forward it to any other sub-network. However, in cases where two devices need to communicate over the wide-area, bridging can be used to transport non-routable protocols.

Figure 2 illustrates transparent bridging between two routers over a serial interface (s0). Bridging will occur between the two Ethernet Interfaces on Router A (e0 and e1) and the two Ethernet Interfaces on Router B (e0 and e1).
