Description
Bridging Status
The following Bridging Status values are available:
•
Enable
- The router will forward broadcast
packets between VLANs.
•
Disable
- The router will not forward broadcast
packets between VLANs.
•
Backup
- This mode ties the VLAN Bridging
function to the IP redundancy feature
(configured in the IP Redundancy windows).
With this status, the VLAN Bridging function is
inactive. It will automatically become active in
case of failure of the main router as configured
in the IP Redundancy windows.
•
Active Backup
- The VLAN Bridging function is
active, as if it was enabled, as long as the main
router (configured in the IP redundancy
window) is not operational. This status value
can not be configured. It is reached
automatically from Backup status upon failure
of the main router, provided that IP
redundancy was configured. When the main
router recovers, the status will return to
Backup.
