Note
If you enable bridging on an interface that has already been
assigned an IP address, then it is considered IP-enabled and will
route (rather than bridge) IP packets received on the interface.
The interface will bridge non-IP data it receives, however.
You can determine whether the Ethernet (eth-0) has been
assigned IP addresses by displaying the IP Address Table
(display the Routing tab, and then click IP Address). These
interfaces will display in the table only if they have been assigned
IP addresses.
You can check whether the eoa-0 interface has been assigned an
IP address by displaying the EOA configuration table (display the
WAN tab, and then click EOA). If the Config IP Address field is
empty and the Use DHCP field contains the word Disable, then no
IP address has been assigned.
3. Click the Enable radio button to turn on bridging.
4. Click

A page will briefly display to confirm your changes, and will

Deleting a Bridge Interface
To make an interface non-bridgeable, display the Bridge
Configuration page and click
next to the interface you want to
delete. Click
to confirm the deletion. The interface
remains defined in the system, but is no longer capable of
performing bridging.
