Transparent bridging over WAN link

[fcatalao]

We have two sites linked by an E1.

SITE 1

--------------- vlan10 -------------

| ATM Switch |--------- | cisco 3524 |

--------------- -------------

|

|vlan 10

-------------

| cisco 7206 |

-------------

|

|E1

|

|

-------------

| cisco 7206 |

-------------

|

SITE 2 |vlan 10

--------------- vlan10 --------------

| ATM Switch |---------| cisco switch |

--------------- --------------

The ATM switched each have a ethernet card. The 3524 have various vlans (each vlan an ip client) with its respective sub-interface in the 7206.

The same on the other end with other clients. Behind our ATM switches we have FWA clients. We are trying to bridge from ATM to ATM and route all the rest (other vlans in 3524).

I have tried the following but with no success.

----------7206 site 1------------

bridge 10 irb

bridge 10 protocol ieee

bridge 10 route ip

int fe0/0.10

bridge 10 (atm clients)

int fe0/0.20

ip add y.y.y.y (ip clients)

int fe0/0.30

ip add x.x.x.x (ip clients)

int s0/0

ip add t.t.t.1

bridge 10

----------------------------------

----------7206 site 2------------

bridge 10 irb

bridge 10 protocol ieee

bridge 10 route ip

int e0/0.10

bridge 10 (atm clients)

int fe0/0.44

ip add w.w.w.w (ip clients)

int fe0/0.31

ip add a.a.a.a (ip clients)

int s0/0

ip add t.t.t.2

bridge 10

----------------------------------

Any help I would greatly appreciate.

Hi,

thanks for your reply. i am not trying to bridge atm. the atm switch has an ethernet card which is connected to a 3524. the connecting in the 3524 is a vlan which in turn is connected to the sub-interface in the 7206. the same goes for site #2. i am trying to bridge the ethernet port in atm switch (site #1) to the ethernet port in atm switch (site #2). the 7206 are connected to each other with an E1 and eigrp is being used.

any help would be greatful.

regards
