Ethernet: ETH2

Wi-Fi access point: Digi AP
a. To delete a device from the bridge:
i. Determine the index numbers of the devices included with the bridge:
(config)> show network bridge eth2 device
0 /network/device/eth2
1 /network/wireless/ap/digi_ap
(config)>
ii. Use the index number to delete the appropriate device. For example, to delete the
Digi AP
Wi-Fi access point from the bridge:
(config)> del network bridge lan device 1
(config)>
Note
If you are deleting multiple devices from the bridge, the device index may be
reordered after each deletion. As a result, best practice is to perform a
show network
bridge lan1 device
command after each device is deleted to determine the new
index numbering.
b. Add devices to the bridge:
i. Determine available devices:
(config network bridge my_bridge)> .. .. interface lan device ?
Device: The network device used by this network interface.
Format:
/network/device/eth1
/network/device/eth2
/network/device/loopback
/network/bridge/lan
/network/wireless/ap/digi_ap
Default value: /network/bridge/lan
Current value: /network/bridge/lan
(config network bridge my_bridge)>
ii. Add the appropriate device. For example, to add the
Digi AP
Wi-Fi access point:
(config network bridge my_bridge)> add device end
/network/wireless/ap/digi_ap
(config)>
5. (Optional) Enable Spanning Tree Protocol (STP).
STP is used when multiple LANs are configured on the same device, to prevent bridge loops and
other routing conflicts.
