CRB can route and bridge a protocol at the same time???

Dear all,

I don't know if it is a valid configuration, but I can do routing and bridge together between bridged and routed interfaces by using CRB!

**********
R6#
hostname R6
!
bridge crb
!
interface FastEthernet0/0
 no ip address
 duplex auto
 speed auto
!
interface FastEthernet0/0.10
 encapsulation dot1Q 10
 ip address 192.168.10.6 255.255.255.0
 bridge-group 1
!
interface FastEthernet0/0.20
 encapsulation dot1Q 20
 ip address 192.168.10.6 255.255.255.0
 bridge-group 1
!
interface FastEthernet0/0.30
 encapsulation dot1Q 30
 ip address 192.168.30.6 255.255.255.0
!
!
bridge 1 protocol ieee
!
end

R7#
hostname R7
!
interface FastEthernet0/0
 ip address 192.168.10.7 255.255.255.0
 duplex auto
 speed auto
!
ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 192.168.10.6
!
end

R8#
hostname R8
!
interface FastEthernet0/0
 ip address 192.168.10.8 255.255.255.0
 duplex auto
 speed auto
!
ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 192.168.10.6
!
end

R9#
hostname R9
!
interface FastEthernet0/0
 ip address 192.168.30.9 255.255.255.0
 duplex auto
 speed auto
!
ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 192.168.30.6
!
end
**********

Then, the testing part:

**********
R6#sh int crb

FastEthernet0/0

 Not bridging this sub-interface.

FastEthernet0/0.10

 Bridged protocols on FastEthernet0/0.10:
  appletalk clns decnet ip

 Software MAC address filter on FastEthernet0/0.10
  Hash Len Address Matches Act Type
  0x00: 0 ffff.ffff.ffff 0 RCV Physical broadcast
  0x2A: 0 0900.2b01.0001 0 RCV DEC spanning tree
  0x9D: 0 000b.fdce.cc60 93 RCV Interface MAC address
  0xC0: 0 0100.0ccc.cccc 0 RCV CDP
  0xC1: 0 0100.0ccc.cccd 5 RCV SSTP MAC address

FastEthernet0/0.20

 Bridged protocols on FastEthernet0/0.20:
  appletalk clns decnet ip

 Software MAC address filter on FastEthernet0/0.20

  0x00: 0 ffff.ffff.ffff 3 RCV Physical broadcast
  0x2A: 0 0900.2b01.0001 0 RCV DEC spanning tree

  0xC2: 1 0180.c200.0000 0 RCV IBM spanning tree
  0xC2: 2 0100.0ccd.cdce 0 RCV VLAN Bridge STP

FastEthernet0/0.30

 Routed protocols on FastEthernet0/0.30:
  ip

 Not bridging this sub-interface.
          
Virtual-Access1
**********

Therefore, ip is bridged among the fa0/0.10 and fa0/0.20. With CRB, normally, we can't do route between bridge group 1 and fa0/0.30. However, by assigning IP address to both fa0/0.10 and fa0/0.20, I can make it works:

**********
R7#p 192.168.10.8 (Bridge)

Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 192.168.10.8, timeout is 2 seconds:
!!!!!
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 1/2/4 ms
R7#p 192.168.30.9 (Route)

Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 192.168.30.9, timeout is 2 seconds:
!!!!!
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 1/2/4 ms
**********

Interesting?
