DETAILED STEPS
To remove a bridge group, use the no bridge bridge-group protocol vlan-bridge global configuration
command. To remove an interface from a bridge group, use the no bridge-group bridge-group interface
configuration command.
Command Purpose
Step 1
configure terminal
Enters global configuration mode.
Step 2
no ip routing
Disables ip routing.
Step 3
bridge bridge-group protocol
vlan-bridge
Assigns a bridge group number, and specify the VLAN-bridge
spanning-tree protocol to run in the bridge group. The ibm and dec
keywords are not supported.
For bridge-group, specify the bridge group number. The range is 1
to 255.
Frames are bridged only among interfaces in the same group.
Step 4
interface interface-id
Enters interface configuration mode and specifies the interface on
which you want to assign the bridge group.
The specified interface must be an SVI: a VLAN interface that you
created by using the interface vlan vlan-id global configuration
command.
These ports must have IP addresses assigned to them.
Step 5
bridge-group bridge-group
Assigns the interface to the bridge group created in Step 2.
By default, the interface is not assigned to any bridge group. An
interface can be assigned to only one bridge group.
