Bridge interface settings

To specify the bridge interfaces that provide access to the core group access point. A bridge interface is a server that runs the core group bridge service. The core group bridge service is the service that establishes communication between core groups.

Best practice: A server that you select as a core group bridge interface should not be a server that handles production responsibilities, such as filtering requests to cluster members, or WebSphere proxy servers. Any server that is a core group bridge interface experiences extensive memory and CPU usage during core group bridge startup, and failover processing, which occurs when one of the bridges in a core group stops. If we cannot dedicate a server as a core group bridge interface, you should select a node agent as the core group bridge interface
