Efficient Networks 107-0001-000 Remote addbridge * macaddr remotename, All MAC addresses

Efficient Networks® Router family	Chapter 6: Remote Commands
Command Line Interface Guide

remote addbridge

Defines the remote router entry as the default bridging destination for outbound bridging. The command can define either the default bridging destination for all MAC addresses or the default bridging destination for a specific MAC address.

When you specify a MAC address on this command, a permanent entry for that address is created in the bridging table. Thereafter, packets that contain that MAC address are bridged using the specified remote router entry. (To see the entries in the bridging table, use the bi list command.)

NOTE:

Bridging using the specified remote is effective only after it has been enabled using the remote enabridge command. To see the current bridge settings for a remote, use the remote listbridge command. To remove the default designation from a remote, use the remote delbridge command.

If IP and IPX routing are disabled, all packets, with an unknown destination, are bridged to the default bridging destination. If IP and/or IPX routing is enabled, bridging occurs only for packets that are not routed.
