Designating a PVC as Hybrid/Bridged
PVCs do not typically allow for bridging in nonmeshed environments. If your
network combines bridging and routing over the same interface, you need to use
the service record portion of each PVC for routing, while at the same time
allowing bridging to operate. To do this, you must define the PVC as a hybrid/
bridged VC.
By default, a PVC does not operate as a hybrid/bridged VC. However, you can
configure any PVC to operate as one.
For more information about PVC access methods, including hybrid access, see
“PVC Access Methods” on page 1-17.
To designate a PVC as hybrid/bridged, complete the following tasks:
Note:
When you define a PVC as a hybrid/bridged VC, Site Manager provides
additional Bridge, Spanning Tree, Source Routing (SR), SR Spanning Tree,
Translational/Learning bridge (Translate/LB), and Native Mode LAN (NML)
protocol options. These protocols run on the PVC along with the protocols
defined in the ATM service record.
