So when asked to configure say VLAN 100 with bridge 14, would 14 in hex
form = E go under the TrBRF and the VLAN ID 100 under 100 and is the
ring number also 100 but in form hex = 64? Or can the ring number be
different or is it dependant on something else?

  The TRBRF is arbitrary in that it's number is that it's an internal
bridge function that is used to interconnet rings, CRFs. Whereas CRF's,
if other bridges/routers are connected are not arbitrary since the ring
numbers obviously must agree.
