Figure 4: Example configuration for a remotely bridged VLAN
To configure VLAN-to-WAN bridge A
1. Ensure that the set bridge stripvlantag command is set to OFF.
2. Create the VLAN to be used for the training devices.
Because the default VLAN with VID 1 may already exist, assign a VLAN
with VID 2 for the training devices with the command:
create vlan=Training vid=2
3. Add switch ports to the VLAN.
To add switch ports to the Training VLAN, use the command:
add vlan=Training port=11,12
4. Add the VLAN to the bridge.
To add the VLAN to the bridge, use the command:
add vlan=2 bridge
5. Create a WAN interface.
To create a PPP interface over a synchronous port or other interface, use the
command:
create ppp=0 over=syn0
6. Configure the bridge ports.
To enable the bridge module and add the PPP interface as a virtual port,
use the commands:
enable bridge
set bridge stripvlantag=no
add bridge port=1 int=ppp0
