Configuring IP Addressing
Enabling IP Bridging
IPC-30
Cisco IOS IP Configuration Guide
The Cisco IOS software can proxy-advertise other machines that use IRDP; however, this practice is not
recommended because it is possible to advertise nonexistent machines or machines that are down.
Enabling IP Bridging
To transparently bridge IP on an interface, use the following commands beginning in global
configuration mode:
Enabling Integrated Routing and Bridging
With integrated routing and bridging (IRB), you can route IP traffic between routed interfaces and bridge
groups, or route IP traffic between bridge groups. Specifically, local or unroutable traffic is bridged
among the bridged interfaces in the same bridge group, while routable traffic is routed to other routed
interfaces or bridge groups. IRB can be used to switch packets in the following ways:
From a bridged interface to a routed interface
From a routed interface to a bridged interface
Within the same bridge group
For more information about configuring integrated routing and bridging, refer to the “Configuring
Transparent Bridging” chapter in the Cisco IOS Bridging and IBM Networking Configuration Guide.
Configuring a Routing Process
At this point in the configuration process, you can choose to configure one or more of the many routing
protocols that are available, based on your individual network needs. Routing protocols provide topology
information of an internetwork. Refer to subsequent chapters in this document for the tasks involved in
configuring IP routing protocols such as BGP, On-Demand Routing (ODR), RIP, IGRP, OSPF, IP
Enhanced IGRP, Integrated IS-IS, and IP multicast routing. If you want to continue to perform IP
addressing tasks, continue reading the following sections.
Router(config-if)# ip irdp preference number
Sets the IRDP preference level of the device.
Router(config-if)# ip irdp address address
[number]
Specifies an IRDP address and preference to proxy-advertise.
Command Purpose
Command Purpose
Step 1
Router(config)# no ip routing
Disables IP routing.
Step 2
Router(config)# interface type number
Specifies an interface and enters interface configuration mode.
Step 3
Router(config-if)# bridge-group group
Adds the interface to a bridge group.
