AW: [suse-security] Router and Bridges

Definition: Bridging is 'Routing' on ISO-OSI layer 2. ;-)

Nope. Bridging is forwarding packages on layer 2 using only the MAC-addresses. Routing is forwarding packages on layer 3 using the MAC-Address of the next router (or receiver) AND checking the destination-IP-Address to find the best route in the memory to this destination. Of course your definition is partly correct, but not really right. BTW: Agree to Kurt... is this threat really necessary on this list ? --- Stephan
