Bridging Settings

Bridging lets the Netopia Gateway use MAC (Ethernet hardware) addresses to for ward non-
TCP/IP traffic from one network to another. When bridging is enabled, the Netopia Gateway
maintains a table of up to 512 MAC addresses. Entries that are not used within 30 sec-
onds are dropped. If the bridging table fills up, the oldest table entries are dropped to
make room for new entries.

Vir tual circuits that use IP framing cannot be bridged.

NOTE:

For bridging in the 3341 (or any model with a USB por t), you cannot set the
bridge option off, or bridge ethernet option off; these are on by default
because of the USB por t.

Common Commands

set bridge sys-bridge {on | off }

Enables or disables bridging ser vices in the Netopia Gateway. You must enable bridging
ser vices within the Netopia Gateway before you can enable bridging for a specific inter-
face.

set bridge concurrent-bridging-routing {on | off }

Enables or disables Concurrent Bridging/Routing.
