Bridge interface settings

A bridge interface is a particular node and server that runs the core group bridge service. The core group bridge service is the service that provides communication between core groups. A bridge interface is defined by a unique combination of a node, server, and transport chain. We cannot configure a cluster of servers to run the same bridge interface. A transport chain represents a network protocol stack that is operating within an application server.

Bridge interfaces

Displays a list of server, node, and chain combinations that are available to become bridge interfaces for your core group access point.

Node

Displays the node on which the core group bridge service is running.

Server

Displays the application server on which the core group bridge service is running. The server you select can have other responsibilities as well as being a core group bridge server. The server does not have to be running as a standalone node.

Chain

Displays the transport channel chain that is used by the core group bridge service for this core group access point. The transport channel chain can be the DCS or DCS-secure channel chains that are created for the DCS_UNICAST_ADDRESS transport chain for each application server.
