Transparent Bridge
Options (For all
interfaces)
• Traffic Management –
Strict Binding: Traffic from bridge hosts (eg. transparent to
WAN1) can only go through the specified WAN interface
(eg. WAN1).
Loose Binding: This acts as a failover mechanism for transparent
bridge mode.
Traffic from bridge hosts (eg. transparent to
WAN1) can go through any WAN interface (eg. WAN2 or
other) when bind interface (eg. WAN1) is down.
Load Balancing: This acts as a load balancing mechanism for
transparent bridge mode. Traffic from bridge hosts (eg. transparent
to WAN1) can go through any WAN interface (eg. WAN1, 2 or
other) based on the loading mechanism specified in the load
balance section.
• ARP Table – The ARP Table is used by the device to determine
the bridge hosts’ location (e.g. inside/outside WAN and which
WAN). Its size can be adjusted if needed. View ARP Tables
displays ON/OFF selection of bridge mode on each WAN port.
Clear ARP Tables disables bridge mode on all WAN ports.
