Router - TG582N - Bridge: Difference between revisions

[[Image:T582-small.png|link=:Category:Router TG582N|Got to Main TG582N Page]]

There are two methods, both submitted by customers, and are not supported by AAISP, we would only suggest you use this if you're sure you know what you're doing!

We would recommend a [[Router - ZyXEL P660R-D1|ZyXEL P660-D1]] or a [[Router - DLINK 320B|Dlink]] if you are looking for a bridge device, this are available to purchase from Sales.

We cannot support this if you break it, sorry.

==Method One (config file)==

I removed it's config and restored, and the [[ethernet]] ports didn't want

to come up!''

''I essentially took a config I found for the BE 'bebox' and merged

'''Config file:''' [[File:AA_TG582n_Bridge_config.ini.zip.zip]]

==Method Two (Manual configuration steps)==

Another Customer entry:

To put the router into proper bridge mode, telnet in and enter these commands

:ppp relay flush

:ppp flush

:eth flush

:atm flush

:atm phonebook flush

:saveall

:atm phonebook add name=BrPPPoE_ph addr=0.38

:atm ifadd intf=BrPPPoE_atm

:atm ifconfig intf=BrPPPoE_atm dest=BrPPPoE_ph encaps=vcmux ulp=mac

:atm ifattach intf=BrPPPoE_atm

:eth bridge ifadd intf=BrPPPoE_br

:eth bridge ifconfig intf=BrPPPoE_br dest=BrPPPoE_atm

:eth bridge ifattach intf=BrPPPoE_br

:service system modify name=DHCP-S state=disabled

:wireless radio state=disabled

:saveall

[[IPv6|IPV6]] not tested with the above setup although, in theory, it should work as all the above is, is a clean bridging setup. (it does work, but not immediately it seems)

I have recently migrated from BE and their router had a 'half-bridge' mode where the router would only use the dhcp allocated WAN IP address and route the allocated subnet onwards.

I am investigating this setup on the [[TG582N]]. Main advantage is that you can then still easily access the router.
