Figure 7: Configuring bridges by service type
The asymmetric bridge types include downlink, uplink, and intralink bridge
interfaces. The intralink bridge interface type is used for subtending other
MXKs, MALCs, MALC XPs, or Raptor XPs from the MXK via Active
Ethernet cards. We will not talk about subtending devices in this chapter, so
intralink bridge will not be discussed.
The uplink/downlink bridges we will build in this chapter are all based on
specific VLANs — VLAN 100 for the data bridge and VLAN 999 for the
video bridge. VLAN 100 is a gateway to the internet. VLAN 999 has a
head-end video server.
