6.2.5 Setting Up the Mounds View Operation for Bridging

Bridging is enabled for nonIP or IPX networks. When bridging is enabled, IP, IPX, and SNMP should be

disabled to increase efficiency. Spanning Tree Bridging is used to support networking protocols like
NetBIOS.

This example provides procedures for configuring two RouteFinder

100

s for bridging using external Terminal

Adapters (TAs)with Basic Rate ISDN service and either a dial or leased line network (Figure 6-3).

Figure 6-3. Bridging with Terminal Adapters

One RouteFinder

100

is connected to the Mounds View LAN with a 10Base-T Ethernet connection, an external

terminal adapter provides the connection from the RouteFinder

100

to the ISDN service. The ISDN service is

provided by the local telephone service which connects the Mounds View LAN to the St Louis LAN.

In this example, a PC is connected to the command port of each RouteFinder

100

. First the configuration of the

Mounds View Operation is set and then the configuration of the St Louis LAN is set.

1.

From the console PC, load Windows® and at the RouteFinder
