70 CHAPTER 2: CUDA 12000 BASE SYSTEM COMMANDS
bridge-group
Creates a network-layer bridge group. A network layer bridge group logically associates multiple
physical interfaces into a single logical interface. You use the ip-address command to assign an
IP address to the logical interface (bridge group). Physical interfaces that comprise the group
share the assigned IP address.
Specifying a bridge group as a cable modem or CPE gateway on multiple DOCSIS/EuroDOCSIS
modules is particularly useful in spanning a single subnet across multiple (DOCSIS/EuroDOCSIS)
modules. In this way, cable modems on different modules can belong to the same network;
swapping of the cable modems among participating modules becomes plug and play.
When you create a bridge group, you can identify it within the system using a number or a name.
Use the no bridge-group command to remove a bridge group from the system.
Mode

Syntax
bridge-group <string>
