Configuring a Bridging Service

Page 29-58

5. You need to specify the

DLCI

for the virtual circuit to include in this bridging service. Only

one virtual circuit may be specified for each bridging service. There is a one-to-one
mapping between the Group and the virtual circuit. Enter a 4, an equal sign (=), and the

DLCI

number for the virtual circuit. The example below includes the virtual circuit with

DLCI

16 in the bridging service:

4=16

Press

<Enter>

.

6. Specify the Group number that you want to be part of this bridging service. Enter a 5, an

equal sign (=), and the Group number. Remember, by default a virtual circuit already
bridges on Group 1. The example below includes Group 3 in the bridging service:

5=3

Press

<Enter>

.

7. Indicate whether or not you want frames to be translated on this virtual bridge port.

When the

Frame-Relay Bridging Mode

field is set to

Bridge all

, no translation is performed

on frames before they are sent out to the Frame Relay network; enter an

A

at this field to

select this option.

When the

Frame-Relay Bridging Mode

field is set to

Ethernet only

, non-Ethernet frames are

first translated to the default Ethernet frame format for this port before they are sent out to
the Frame Relay network. Any

MAC

translations configured through the Switch menu are

valid. Enter an

E

at this field to select this option.

8. Type

save

at the colon prompt (:) and press

<Enter>

. All parameters for this bridging

service are saved.
