38 Bridging
Configuring the PathBuilder S200 Series Switch for Bridging Operation
Figure 18. Translational Bridging Example
Figure 19 shows a situation where a PathBuilder S24x, 26x, and 27x switch is
configured for translational bridging with SVCs/PVCs originating from two remotes.
Multiple remote Ethernet and Token Ring LANs may attach to the local Token Ring
via the PathBuilder S24x, 26x, and 27x switch with Translational Bridging.
