Bitswap-layer3-addresses

[fokkk]

Hi group,

I'm not sure under what circumstances we need "bridge 1 bitswap-layer3-addresses".

Is it mandatory when we do SR/TLB with a mix of ethernet and token interfaces ?

I did some searches but could not find a sample config where we need this command. The sample configuration for SR/TLR provided by Cisco does not have that "bridge 1 bitswap-layer3-addresses".

To the best of my knowledge, when you are doing translational briding, you are only bitswapping the mac addresses and not the layer 3 address. You don't need to bitswap layer 3 addresses in this case. At least not that I think of.
