Set up a bridge for a VLAN tag group
If the devices that are connected to the router’s Ethernet LAN ports or WiFi network include an
IPTV device, your ISP might require you to set up a bridge for a VLAN tag group for the router’s
Internet interface.
If you are subscribed to IPTV service, the router might require VLAN tags to distinguish between
the Internet traffic and the IPTV traffic. A bridge with a VLAN tag group prevents packets that are
sent between the IPTV device and the router’s Internet port from being processed through the
router’s network address translation (NAT) service.
You can add VLAN tag groups to a bridge and assign VLAN IDs and priority values to each VLAN
tag group.
To add a VLAN tag group and enable the bridge:
1.
Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to the network.
2.
Enter the router user name and password.
