Interface and Circuit Overview
The CSS provides Ethernet interfaces (ports) that enable you to connect servers,
PCs, routers, and other devices to the CSS.
Using the bridge command, you assign the Ethernet interfaces to a specific
VLAN. Each VLAN circuit requires an IP address. Assigning an IP address to
each VLAN circuit allows the CSS to route Ethernet interfaces from VLAN to
VLAN.
