Bridge Commands
Bridge commands are used to enable or disable simultaneous bridgin g and
routing, configuration of bridge groups and their attributes, and apply or remove
bridge groups from an interface or sub-interface.
To show the bridge database or spanning-tree topology, see Table C-13, Show
Commands.

Minimum Access Level: Administrator
Command Mode: config
A user can enable or disable simultaneous bridging and routing and configure attributes
associated with a bridging group. Bridge group 1 is created by defaul t wi th a priority of
32768 and configured as a learning bridge utilizing the IEEE 802.1 spanning tree protocol.
Simultaneous routing and bridging is disabled by default. Once concurrent routing/
bridging is enabled, you must configure an explicit bridge route for any protocol to be
routed on interfaces in a bridge group.
Example: bridge crb 1 route ip
crb Enable or disable concurrent routing and bridging on the device.
bridge-group
Bridge group 1 is created by default. If a bridge-group is specified, one of
the following attributes must be specified:
acquire Configure a learning bridge that is capable of dynamically learning new
stations. This argument is configured by default on all bridge groups. The no bridge
command is not accepted for this argument.
aging-time Specifies the length of time that an unused dynamic entry is maintained
in the bridge table. The no bridge command resets the aging-time to the default
value.
aging-time
Valid range is 101,000,000 seconds. The default is 300.
protocol Specify a spanning tree protocol.
span-tree-protocol
Valid spanning tree protocol for IEEE 802.1 protocol isieee.
priority Specify the priority ranking for this bridge. The higher the n um ber, the less
likely this bridge will be selected as the spanning tree root.
span-tree-priority
Valid priority values when spanning tree protocol is
IEEE.802.1 are: 065535. The default is 32768.
route Specify a protocol to be routed in this bridge group when concurrent routing
and bridging are enabled.
route-protocol
Valid routing protocol is IP.
