Configuring Default Node-Wide Bridging Parameters
If one or more Bridge ports (interfaces) will be established in the local node, certain
parameters must be configured to define bridge operation. Press
[B]
at the Configure
IP/LLC2/BRIDGE/IPX Default Parameters Menu (or
[A], [A], [E], [B]
from the Main
Menu). When prompted, enter:
●
Virtual LAN ID
– if also configuring LLC2 or Bridging in the node, enter a value

[Enter]
(accepting the default of

LAN IDs can also be configured in LLC2 Interface/Bridge
Port records (later in this chapter). Each LAN ID must be
