By bridge you mean "the bridge" and not a router? Just for everyone's info,
bridges run over the datalink layer so it can handle almost any network
protocol. Routers operate on the network layer, so it's dependent on the
protocol (e.g. IP, IPX, etc.). Hence, a bridge is a low-level router,
operating just above the physical layer (on which a repeater is used).
I don't think Linux can become a bridge, just a router. Although, I could be
wrong.

Ah! If this is the only thing you wanna do then you just want Linux to act
as a router.
