Fallback bridging does not work for IPv4.

Fallback Bridging Configuration Guidelines

A maximum of 31 bridge groups can be configured on the switch.

An interface (an SVI or routed port) can be a member of only one bridge group.

Use a bridge group for each separately bridged (topologically distinct) network connected to the switch.

All protocols except IP (Version 4 and Version 6), Address Resolution Protocol (ARP), reverse ARP (RARP), LOOPBACK, and Frame Relay ARP are fallback bridged.

However, despite the fact that the UniverCD says that fallback bridging does not work for IPv6, it definitely worked for me in a test environment (I think the solution for one task in Internetwork Expert Workbook was fallback bridging IPv6)

Hi,

i have seen the "vlan-bridge" command for bridging between vlan's on one switch.
I have tested it to bridge two vlans like this:

int vl1
bridge-group 1

int vl2
bridge-group 1

bridge 1 protocol vlan-bridge

It's called fallback-bridging. But does this mean it does not bridge ip traffic?

Is it possible to bridge clients in these vlans per ip over this configuration? I found it will not work.
Using c3550-ipservicesk9-mz.122-25.SEE.
