Remote RMX-3200 Version 5.2x Configuration Guide
Configuring the Bridge Group: Overview
9-2
Overview
Bridging is the forwarding of Ethernet frames. On Remote RMX-3200, there is a
single bridge group referred to as
switch. Serial WAN controllers can be added to
and removed from the bridge group. The eight switched Ethernet ports are part of the
bridge group by default. However, they can be manually removed from the bridge
group and configured with individual interfaces.
An IP interface can be associated with the bridge group, allowing IP packets to be
routed to the bridge. In addition, the
Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) can be enabled
and configured to help prevent loops in the bridged network on which Remote RMX-
3200 participates.
