HAPTER 15: NETWORK-LAYER BRIDGING
Assigning IP Addresses to Bridge Groups
A network-layer bridge is comprised of interfaces that belong to the same
bridge group. They share any IP address that you assign to the bridge group.
The IP address that you assign to the bridge-group is automatically added to
the routing table.
Note that because the routing table is automatically updated upon assigning
the IP address to the bridge group, you do not have to specifically install the
address on the physical interface.
You assign an IP address to a network-layer bridge just as you would any
physical interface. For more information about assigning IP addresses to
physical interfaces, refer to Chapter 12, “Configuring IP Routing”.
To assign an IP address to a bridge group, follow this procedure:
1. Navigate to Network Browser > GroupName > ChassisName > Cuda
Chassis Manager > Configuration > IP > IP Routing.
2. Click the IP Configuration tab.
3. Click the IP Configuration sub tab. The IP Configuration window
appears.
4. Select the row that includes the bridge group to which you want to
assign an IP address. The bridge group is identified as Nlbg in the Class
column.
