Select Enable Bridging on the System: IP General Settings menu.

Select Bridge Interfaces or Bond Interfaces

oWhen bridging is enabled, network traffic is forwarded across all Ethernet ports with no firewall restrictions. All the Ethernet ports are all transparently connected at the data link layer (layer 2) so they do retain their unique MAC addresses.

oWith bonding the network traffic is carried between the ports but they present with one MAC address.

oBoth modes remove all the Management LAN Interface and Out-of-Band/Failover Interface functions and disable the DHCP Server .

oAll the Ethernet ports are all transparently connected at the data link layer (layer 2) and they are configured collectively using the Network Interface menu.

3.6.5Static routes

Static routes provide a very quick way to route data from one subnet to different subnet. So you can hard code a path that specifies to the console server to get to a certain subnet by using a certain path. This may be useful for remotely accessing various subnets at a remote site when being accessed using the cellular out of band connection.
