Set Up a Bridge for a Port Group or VLAN Tag Group

Some devices, such as an IPTV, cannot function behind the router's network address translation (NAT)
service or firewall. Based on what your Internet service provider (ISP) requires, for the device to connect to
the ISP's network directly, you can enable the bridge between the device and the router's Internet port or
add new VLAN tag groups to the bridge.
