Bridging Configuration 63
8 Bridging Configuration
This chapter shows you how to configure the Bridging options for your
Prestige. Depending on your particular applications, you will need to
configure different menus. We will illustrate the configuration for some
applications in the following sections.
Bridge Ethernet Setup
Bridging is used to forward packets of unsupported protocols whose
destination is not on the local Ethernet to the WAN.
LAN-to-LAN Application
A typical LAN-to-LAN application is to use your Prestige to call from
one office to another office such that stations on one network have
access to stations on the remote side and vice versa. You will need to
configure a Remote Node in order to dial out to another office.
Remote Node Setup
Follow the procedure in Chapter 5 to fill the protocol-independent
parameters in Menu 11, Remote Node Profile. For the protocol-
dependent parameters, follow the ensuing instructions:
1. Bridge - Make sure this field is set to Yes.
2. Edit IP/IPX/Bridge - Press the space bar to change it to Yes and
press Enter to go to the network layer options menu as seen below:
