AppleTalk Phase 2 Bridge Group. This is shown schematically in the diagram above.

ϖNote: AppleTalk Phase 1 is generally treated as a distinct protocol for bridging and routing purposes, and thus will have its own “bridge group” should you decide to have a router bridge it.

AppleTalk Phase 1 Configuration

AppleTalk Phase 1 is an earlier version of the AppleTalk protocol which is still in use on some large legacy networks. Compatible Systems routers support this protocol, and “transitional routing” between it and AppleTalk Phase 2.

ϖNote: Although Compatible Systems routers support AppleTalk Phase 1, we recommend that all new AppleTalk installations use AppleTalk Phase 2, which is much more capable.
