I am reading in Tan Nam-Kee's bridging book, where
he has a DLSW/SRB configs as follows:
Router 4
source-bridge ring-group 73
dlsw local-peer peer-id 170.34.34.130 cost 2 promiscuous
dlsw ring-list 1 rings 34
dlsw remote-peer 1 tcp 170.34.34.129
!
interface TokenRing0/0
source-bridge 34 1 73
source-bridge spanning
!
Router 3
source-bridge ring-group 73
dlsw local-peer peer-id 170.34.34.129 cost 4 promiscuous
dlsw ring-ist 1 rings 34
dlsw remote-peer 1 tcp 170.34.34.130
!
interface TokenRing0
source-bridge 34 2 73
source-bridge spanning
Ok, Tan says "The bridge number defined for R3's TO0/0 is
1 and for R4's TO0 is 2. This is to prevent loops, since
the Token Ring interfaces of both R3 and R4 are physically
connected to the same ring."
Now if this is the way things should be, thats great, I
can work like that. But *alot* of configs I see, including
Fatkid 441 Advanced DLSW, use the same bridge number on routers
sharing the same physical ring (Fatkid does this on R4 and R3
in the DLSW lab, both use the same bridge and virtual ring.
Anyone care to comment?
