The
Bridge-Group Virtual
Interface (BVI) becomes available on routers when the

command has been
given. This interface allows the router to route and bridge the same
protocol over the same interface. The
bridge
group-number
must match the bridge group
defined for the bridge.
Example
In this configuration, serial0
and
serial1
are bridged, and traffic is routed through
those interfaces out through ethernet0
:
bridge irb bridge 1 protocol ieee ! interface serial0 bridge-group 1 ! interface serial bridge-group 1 ! interface ethernet 0 ip address 10.11.1.1 255.255.255.0 ! ! Configure the virtual bvi interface with a bridge group number of 1 interface bvi 1 ip address 10.10.3.1 255.255.255.0 ! ! Now configure the routing for the bridge bridge 1 route ip
