Bridging wit two routers.

[nid2know]

hi all,
Can anyone,tell me the easiest way to configure bridging over two routers (3640 and 1750), i know i can get this information on the cisco site but i always prefer the stuff i get from here, it is usually more diverse and enlightening.

For transparent bridging use the following,

no ip routing
bridge-group 1 protocol ieee

int f0/0
bridge-group 1

int s0/0
bridge-group 1

You can add an Ip address for remote management, but its not needed for the bridging. If you have to route IP but bridge other protocols then enable IP routing.
