It does not necessarily mean the bridge specified in the source bridge
command. It is defining a bridge number of a bridge that links the
logical source route domain with the logical transparent domain. It
must be a valid source route bridge number.

different bridge numbers than those under the interface will work as long
as it is a valid source route bridge number.

in general the bridge numbers do not have to be unique. There is exactly
one circumstance where the bridge numbers must be unique and that is the
situation where two rings are connected by two bridges, in which case the
two bridge numbers must be unique.
