6.7. Task 5: Configure SPR for Transparent
Bridging
Once you have downloaded to the SPR a software version supporting transparent
bridging, you need to configure the SPR for transparent bridging. To perform this,
you need to use WipConfig to change the
Mode
field from
Router
(i.e. IP router
mode) to
Bridge
(i.e. bridge mode).
Warning:
In this procedure, you need to reset the SPR to factory default
settings. This results in the deletion of the NVRAM frequency tables. Therefore,
it is recommended to save the NVRAM frequency tables before performing this
procedure.
Note:
It is recommended to configure the SPR through a serial connection.
