Re: Fall-back vs Transparent Bridging

Basically transparent bridging is something you may configure on your
router to make it into a switch -- You are making your router into a
transparent bridge so it learns mac addresses on interfaces and such.
This is usually used when you have multiple interfaces on a router
that run a non-routable protocol and you want communication between
them.

fallback bridging is something you would typically do on your switch.
So think about having multiple VLANs/SVIs on a switch, but you want
the hosts on both to be able to communicate at layer 2.
