Not really directly related to Brf. If you configure two router
Tokenring ports (on 3920) to SRB, you will need to do multiring on both
the routers tokenring ports to allow IP packets to flow across. This
is because you have made these two ports on the Tokenring switch to be
expecting a RIF. And the routers doesn't use RIF by default. By turning
multiring on the routers it will use the RIF and everything is happy.
Basically making the routers look like SNA end stations.
