IP Bridge | Activates the IP Bridge functionality. |
The following parameters apply only if IP Bridge is Active. | |
Initial IP Address to | Indicates the start of the range of IP addresses to be transferred to another physical |
be Bridged | location. This and the next three parameters are repeated in case the bridge is to be |
| broken up into various sections. Up to 8 sections can be defined. In the example, this |
| value is 200.240.240.4. |
Ending IP Address to | Indicates the end of the range of IP addresses to be transferred to another physical |
be Bridged | location. In the example, this value is 200.240.240.8. |

Link |
|
Bridge Over Link | Indicates which link forms the other half of the bridge. In the example, link 1 is used. |
Other Parameters
Transparent Bridge is covered in chapter 7 and IPX is covered in chapter 13. The parameters defined in the Routing Protocol and Traffic Control Menus should be set after reading chapters 9 and 12, respectively. It is probably best to complete the basic configuration of all router interfaces, then return to the routing protocol and traffic control menus after general routing and traffic control strategies have been defined.
