AppleTalk Phase 2 Bridge Group. This is shown schematically in the diagram
above.
v Note: AppleTalk Phase 1 is generally treated as a distinct protocol for
bridging and routing purposes, and thus will have its own “bridge group”
should you decide to have a router bridge it.

AppleTalk Phase 1 Configuration
AppleTalk Phase 1 is an earlier version of the AppleTalk protocol which is
still in use on some large legacy networks. Compatible Systems routers
support this protocol, and “transitional routing” between it and AppleTalk
Phase 2.
v Note: Although Compatible Systems routers support AppleTalk Phase 1,
we recommend that all new AppleTalk installations use AppleTalk Phase 2,
which is much more capable.
