Actually, AFAIK the difference between a bridge and a repeater is just
that a repeater is doing an analog repeat of the signal, not receiving
it digitally and retransmitting it. Whether the bridge does
spanning-tree, isolation, or cut-through is depends on its feature
set. A device doesn't have to do any of these things to qualify as
being a bridge - it just has to receive packets digitally and
retransmit them digitally between two network segments.
