System Administration 6-23

Packets received from the WAN do not pass through the Bridge Firewall. Instead, packets received from the WAN are delivered to the router or bridging function based on their encapsulation and on the state of the MAC-Encapsulated Routing parameter in the remote site profile.

In general, a packet received in a routed encapsulation (i.e., IPCP or Routed RFC 1483) is delivered to the router. A packet received in a bridged encapsulation is passed on to the bridge. If MAC-Encapsulated Routing is enabled, the received (bridge-encapsulated) packets are delivered to the router.
