Chapter 10 Interface

ZyWALL USG 100/200 Series User’s Guide

A bridge interface creates a software bridge between the members of the bridge interface. It 
also becomes the ZyWALL’s interface for the resulting network.

A bridge interface may consist of the following members:

• Zero or one WLAN interfaces 

• Zero or one VLAN interfaces (and any associated virtual VLAN interfaces)

• Any number of Ethernet interfaces (and any associated virtual Ethernet interfaces)

When you create a bridge interface, the ZyWALL removes the members’ entries from the 
routing table and adds the bridge interface’s entries to the routing table. For example, this table 
shows the routing table before and after you create bridge interface br0 (250.250.250.0/23) 
between lan1 and vlan1.

In this example, virtual Ethernet interface lan1:1 is also removed from the routing table when 
lan1 is added to br0. Virtual interfaces are automatically added to or remove from a bridge 
interface when the underlying interface is added or removed.

This screen lists every bridge interface and virtual interface created on top of bridge interfaces. 
To access this screen, click Network > Interface > Bridge.

Each field is described in the following table.
