To create a TLS bridge on the WAN interface using the default bond
group interface, enter
bridge add
interface/type
tls
. In this example, the
default interface is
1-1-40-0/efmbond
with a VLAN ID of 7.
zSH>
bridge add 1-1-40-0/efmbond tls vlan 7
Adding bridge on 1-1-40-0/efmbond
Created bridge-interface-record 1-1-40-0-efmbond/bridge

Next, create a TLS bridge on the LAN interface with
bridge add
interface/type tls
. This example configures a TLS bridge on the first
Ethernet LAN interface 1-1-1-0-eth with a VLAN ID of 200.
zSH>
bridge add 1-1-1-0/eth tls vlan 200
Adding bridge on 1-1-1-0/eth
Created bridge-interface-record 1-1-1-0-eth/bridge

To verify the bridges created, enter
bridge show

Configure uplink and downlink bridges
An uplink bridge uses one bridge interface in a VLAN as a default, and traffic
from all other interfaces exits the system from this interface. As the default
interface, packets entering the system on this interface do not have their
source MAC addresses learned and associated with this interface. Traffic
coming into this uplink interface is sent to the interface where the address has
been learned.
Uplink bridge interfaces require an additional bridge-path configuration to set
a default path for either a specific VLAN or globally for the system onto the
uplink bridge. If an uplink is missing this configuration, traffic will not flow
across the asymmetric VLAN.
A downlink bridge is used in conjunction with an uplink bridge. where the
uplink bridge is the path upstream to the network, and the downlink bridge is
