Configuring bridging

The 8683POSM Module is configured for bridging by default. The configuration is set for bridging between two 8683POSM Modules with one default VLAN. The Bridge Control Protocol (BCP) is enabled on the 8683POSM Module by default.

Note: When the POS link is enabled after a parameter change or a chassis reset, some superfluous traffic may initially be sent out of POS ports before any LCP packets go out. This is normal.

You can also configure bridging for the 8683POSM Module for connection to other POS-capable devices.
