Before You Configure Bridged IP

Before you configure bridged IP on an ATM interface, verify that:

You have correctly installed a module that supports bridged IP. For information, see ERX Module Guide, Appendix A, Module Protocol Support (on ERX7xx models, ERX14xx models, and the ERX310 router) or E120 and E320 Module Guide, Appendix A, IOA Protocol Support (on the E120 or the E320 router).
Each configured line can transmit data to and receive data from your switch connections.

Table 25 lists the prerequisite tasks for configuring bridged IP and the resources that you can consult to learn how to perform these tasks.
