Okay, nevermind. I went back to the beginning and configured SRT instead
just like I did in the first place. I realized that I did not have
'bitswap-layer3-addresses' in the config the first time I tried it. I
assumed I was doing something wrong and tried to do this using SR/TLB which
was a bad move.

Simply erasing all SRB-related configs and adding a bridge-group line to the
token ring interface works great. I just wasn't paying enough attention the
first time I tried it.

Live and learn. :-) This is *exactly* why I was practicing bridging in the
first place!

Thanks,
John
