Bridge with RFC 1483 Configuration
Menu options for the DSL-502G are different when the connection profile specifies Bridge with RFC 1483 since
it is acting in the capacity of a bridge rather than a router. You can see from the figure below that there are fewer
menu options for device configuration. Most of the menus in the Configuration file are the same and are used in
the same way they are used for Router with PPP configuration. Instructions for using the Connection Profile and
Ethernet IP Address menus can be found in the previous section,
Router with PPP Configuration .
Figure 28. Bridge Configuration Menus
Change Encapsulation - Bridge Configuration
When the device connection profile defines the device as a Bridge with RFC 1483, the first window that appears
after login is the Bridge/Router Configuration window. Use this menu to change the encapsulation method used
for packets transported through the bridge.
The Layer 2 Filtering
menu only appears
when the device is in
bridge mode.
