1. Scope of the work

                       To disable router mode and enable brigdemode in BPIR4 Router. It means, by default device will be in router mode. Once changed to bridge mode, Private WIFI will stop its broadcasting,  Ethernet Client should get public IP address (in erouter series)  and Wireless client will lose its connection to private WIFI.

2. Target Audience  

• RDK-B Operators
• RDK-B SoC Vendors
• RDK-B OEM's
• RDK-B Application Vendors
• RDK-B System Integrators

• Bananapi R4 Device.

6. TR-181 Data Model Parameter of Bridge Mode

7. Test Procedure

7.1. Enabling BridgeMode via dmcli 

          To enable bridge mode run the following dmcli commands,

Once the BPI is in bridge-mode, below test cases are needs to be passed,

• brlan0 will lose IP address
• A new bridge is created lan0(interface link llan0) which will have 10.0.0.1 ip address
• Private WiFi should stops broadcasting
• Ethernet (lan) clients should get Public IP address(i,e in erouter ip series)
• Verify whether the admin UI page is accessible by using 10.0.0.1 ip in ethernet client device 
• Changing from bridgemode to router mode and verify basic functionalities are working fine like Private WiFi should be broadcasted, able to get ip & internet access for wifi and lan clients and admin UI also accessible in connected clients. 

8. BPI  Test Results

8.1. Router → Bridge-Static 

1. Changing the LanMode from router to bridge-static mode

         2. A new bridge is created net0(interface link lnet0) which will have 10.0.0.1 ip address

           3.Ethernet (lan) clients should get Public IP address(i,e in erouter ip series)

           4. brlan0 shouldn't have  IP address

8.2. Bridge-Static → Router

1.  Changing the LanMode from bridge-static to Router Mode.

       2. net0 and lnet0 interfaces should be deleted.
