Configure Network Bridge

Network Bridging provides an easy way to connect two or more networks to become a single big network without using router in order to share file, printer or Internet connection. Please note that all computers in different network that needs to be bridged must sit in same logical IP Network.

On the system with multiple network adapters :
In the properties of "My Network Places",
right-click on a network connection to display the context menu : "Bridge Connections"

You will get the warning : "To create a Network Bridge, you must select at least two network connections that are not being used by Internet Connection Sharing or the Internet Connection Firewall"

You need to select multiple Network connections : select with a single click the first network connection - hold down the Ctrl-key and select with a single click the second (or more) network connections - right-click and selects now from the pop-up/Context menu to "Bridge Connections"

You will get for a while a message: "please wait while Windows bridges the connections"


Windows will create the "Network Bridge", which for a few seconds will be shown with "Network "
