Example 8-47 shows that Bridge group 1 is running the IEEE Spanning Tree Protocol.

Example 8-47. Displaying the Spanning Tree Protocol (IEEE)
lab-6400NRP#show spanning-tree 1
 Bridge group 1 is executing the ieee compatible Spanning Tree protocol
  Bridge Identifier has priority 32768, address 0000.0c7f.70fc
  Configured hello time 2, max age 20, forward delay 15
  We are the root of the spanning tree
  Topology change flag not set, detected flag not set
  Number of topology changes 4 last change occurred 00:35:16 ago
          from ATM0/0/0.235
  Times:  hold 1, topology change 35, notification 2
          hello 2, max age 20, forward delay 15
  Timers: hello 0, topology change 0, notification 0, aging 300
 Port 6 (ATM0/0/0.135) of Bridge group 1 is forwarding
   Port path cost 14, Port priority 128, Port Identifier 128.6.
   Designated root has priority 32768, address 0000.0c7f.70fc
   Designated bridge has priority 32768, address 0000.0c7f.70fc
   Designated port id is 128.6, designated path cost 0
   Timers: message age 0, forward delay 0, hold 0
   Number of transitions to forwarding state: 1
   BPDU: sent 1663, received 2
 Port 8 (ATM0/0/0.235) of Bridge group 1 is forwarding
   Port path cost 14, Port priority 128, Port Identifier 128.8.
   Designated root has priority 32768, address 0000.0c7f.70fc
   Designated bridge has priority 32768, address 0000.0c7f.70fc
   Designated port id is 128.8, designated path cost 0
   Timers: message age 0, forward delay 0, hold 0
   Number of transitions to forwarding state: 1
   BPDU: sent 1527, received 1

Example 8-48 shows the IP and MAC addresses of lab-827A and lab-827B. show arp is a useful command to verify whether bridging is configured properly.

Example 8-48. Displaying ARP Information
lab-6400NRP#show arp
Protocol  Address          Age (min)  Hardware Addr   Type   Interface
Internet  10.2.2.2               31   0001.96a4.84ac  ARPA   BVI1
Internet  10.2.2.3               31   0001.96a4.8fae  ARPA   BVI1
Internet  10.2.2.1                -   0050.7359.35a6  ARPA   BVI1

Example 8-49 illustrates that both subinterfaces are in the same bridge group (Bridge group 1), and traffic is passed among them. show bridge is another useful command to debug RFC 1483 bridging.

Example 8-49. Displaying Classes of Entries in the Bridge Forwarding Database
lab-6400NRP#show bridge verbose
Total of 300 station blocks, 298 free
Codes: P - permanent, S - self
BG Hash      Address      Action  Interface      VC    Age   RX count   TX count

 1 28/0   0001.96a4.84ac forward  ATM0/0/0.135    1      0        100        100
Flood ports (BG 1)           RX count    TX count
ATM0/0/0.135                        0           0
ATM0/0/0.235                        0           0
