CHAPTER 38
IP Bridge
This chapter explains how to set up the IP bridge function in the IES-1248-51V.
38.1 IP Bridge Overview
The IP bridge function is designed for large-scale, flat, access networks, and it is
ideal when the network is based on Ethernet. When the IP bridge is enabled, the
IES-1248-51V forwards frames based on the destination IP address, instead of the
destination MAC address, and it replaces the source MAC address with its own
MAC address.
