Since bridging functionality operates below the network layer, it is transparent to

any layer 3 protocol. PCs or workstations can use Transmission Control Protocol
(TCP)/Internet Protocol (IP), Sequenced Packet Exchange (SPX)/Internetwork

Packet Exchange (IPX), AppleTalk, or any other protocol suite. This implies that

any protocol currently being used for applications can be transported to remote

destinations and vice versa.

Any type of machine (PC, MAC, or Sun workstation) can be connected via

Ethernet to the ADSL modem.

The bridge database can accommodate as many as 256 entries simultaneously.

Assume a sample configuration with four remote ports and one local port

(Ethernet interface): If all systems are evenly distributed over all the ports, you
