When you disable bridging at a port interface, you disconnect that port’s network segment from the bridge entirely. The port does not forward any packets, nor does it participate in Spanning Tree operations. Nodes connected to that network segment can still communicate with one another, but they can’t communicate with other networks connected to the bridge.
When you enable bridging for the interface, the port moves from the Disabled state through the Listening and Learning states to the Forwarding state; bridge port state color codes will change accordingly.

For more information about bridging functions and how to determine the current state of each bridge port, see Bridge Port Display Forms, page
