Bridging Configuration
Bridge Ethernet Setup
Bridging is used to forward packets of unsupported protocols
whose destination is not on the local Ethernet to the WAN.
Basically, all non-local packets are bridged to the WAN; however,
the DI-106M applies special handling for certain IPX packets to
reduce the number of calls, depending on the setting of the “Handle
IPX” field.
♦
If this field is set to None, nothing is done to IPX traffic.
♦
If it is set to Client, all RIP and SAP (Service Advertising
Protocol) periodical response packets will not trigger the call.
♦
If it is set to Server, no RIP or SAP packets will trigger the
call. In addition, during the time when the ISDN line is down,
the DI-106M will reply to the server’s watchdog messages on
behalf of remote clients. The period of time that the DI-106M
will do this is linked to the Ethernet Address Timeout
parameter in each Remote Node (see the Remote Node
Configuration chapter starting on page 57). When a remote
Ethernet address is aged out, there is no need to maintain its
connection to the IPX server.
