R90 Description of the menu options

Setup/Bridge-module

This menu allows you to select the settings necessary for bridge mode. The menu has the following layout:

	/Bridge-module	Bridge settings
	Operating	Bridge active or inactive
	Bridge-table	Displays bridge table.
	LAN-config	Settings for the LAN side
	Cable-config	Settings for the cable side
Operating	This option allows you to activate or deactivate the bridge. In the default configuration,
	the bridge is activated.

If the device is used just as an IP router connection, the bridge should be deactivated.

Bridge table	This option allows you to display the entries in the current bridge table. The table is
	automatically created and managed by means of a hash procedure. It comprises max.
	512 entries.
	Entries in the bridge table may appear as shown below when the bridge has acquired
	local and remote MAC addresses over time:
	Node ID	Last-access	Forward-, Filter-Flag
	00a05702000a	4 tics	local
	0800096483D 4	105073354 tics	local
	00001b157de0	105079059 tics	remote
	The last access time to occur since the system was switched on is stored as a multiple
	of 9 ms (tics). The forward flag reflects the location of the MAC address. An entry in the
	form 00a057XXXXXX is the unique MAC address of the device.
	The 'forward flag' column is output for remote configuration only. This column is not
	included in the display.
Broadcast	This option allows you to specify whether broadcast data packets are to be transmitted
	always (pos = default), never (neg), or only when a connection exists (sem).
Multicast	This option allows you to specify whether multicast data packets are to be transmitted
	always (pos = default), never (neg), or only when a connection exists (sem).
