This section explains the transparent bridge mode and tells you how to configure it on the appliance.<br />

In this mode, the clients of the appliance are unaware that they are connected to it. They need not be<br />

router, where it serves as an (invisible) bridge.<br />

The following diagram shows a configuration in transparent bridge mode:<br />
