Cisco 3550, IP routing and AppleTalk bridging.

[Lars M. Hansen]

I have a 3550-12T switch, and for a short period of time, I need it to
route IP traffic between two LAN. I also need AppleTalk bridging. And
yes, it does have the EMI image.

It appears easy enough to enable the switch for IP routine. Preliminary
tests shows that this is working, at least to some degree (works one
way, not the other. Probably due to the fact that I only had a laptop
plugged directly into the routed port on the switch, so routing
protocols were useless...)

Now the big question is, how do I get it to transparently bridge
AppleTalk? I need the same AT zone on both sides of the bridge.

Would CEF do what I need, or am I looking in the wrong part of the
forest? Looking for anything related to AppleTalk and the 3550 on Ciscos
website is rather fruitless.

Any pointers would be very much appreciated.

What you are looking for is "Fallback-bridging". This takes care of bridging
all non-ip traffic.

Works like a charm, thanks.
