Enter y to configure SRT bridging. Otherwise, enter n. For each Token-Ring
interface in the configuration, you will be prompted to enable Source Routing on
the interface.
Configure SRT Bridging? (Yes, No): [Yes]
You are now configuring the Source Routing part of SRT Bridging
Bridge Number (hex) of this Router (1-F): [A]
4. Enter a bridge number, which is a hexadecimal value from 1 to F that is unique
between two parallel segments.
Interface 0 (Port 1) is of type Token Ring
Configure Source Routing on this interface (Yes, No): [Yes]
