Configuring

transparent bridging on port 2. LCM responds:

Port 2 bridging: SRT (segment = 1 bridge = 9)

To change the bridging functions for a port, re-issue the bridge
command (as described above), using the new option. To set the
segment number, use the

srsegment

command and to set the bridge

number use the

srbridge

command. The default value for the

bridge and segment numbers is 0 (zero).

Note:

In order to accomplish routing tasks, the ATX must be configured
to recognize hexadecimal references. For instance, to route using
IPX, a Novell Network Number must be used for configuration
purposes. The Novell Network Number, entered in hexadecimal
format, identifies thenode by the combination of the MAC layer
address of its network interface: either its router port or Network
Interface Card (NIC). To determine the hexadecimal number from
a network number, refer to figure 3-2 below.

3.1.2 Displaying Bridging Functions

To display the bridging functions that are enabled for all ports:

1. Type:

bridge

LCM responds with a list of all ports and the bridging
functions that are enabled. For example:

Usage: bridge [PORT-RANGE

[{off|transparent|sr|srt}

Decimal: 6240

Hexidecimal: 1860

To determine the Novell Network
Number, combine the 4 byte network
number with the 6 byte MAC layer
address:

00.00.18.60.00.00.1D.00.90.F9
