Port x : yyyy
Mode: Off
à
This Bridge port is switched off
Mode: Group Bridge
à
Set this port to Group Bridge mode. In group bridge mode
you can transfer one group of your local Green-GO network to another
Green-GO network. Note that this other network does not have to have
the same configuration and the Group name can be different on both
sides.
Mode : User access
à
Set this port to User Access. in User access mode you can
transfer A single user from your local Green-GO network to a remote
Green-GO network or Green-GO device. This User is a Remote member
of your local Green-GO network and shares the Config.

Green-GO Bridge X – Quick Start Guide
Set up a group bridge
To set up a Group bridge you will need a Green-GO bridge on both Green-GO
networks.Setting up a group bridge is explained below. A Bridge connection needs 2 sides; A
Passive side that listens on a UDP port to an incoming connection, and an Active side that
connects to a port on a remote IP.
Mode: Group Bridge
Group:
à
Select a Group from the local Green-GO network that you want to
Bridge to the Remote Green-GO network
Call
à
Set the forwarding behavior of calls from the local and remote networks
enabled
à
calls are forwarded in both directions
send
à
calls can only be sent from the local network
receive
à
calls can only be received by the remote network
disabled
à
calls are not forwarded in both directions
Routing
à
Enable or disable a bridge to forward an incoming group to another
port. Enabling this will allow you to connect the same group to 3 or more
locations without the need to make a bridge connection between all
locations.
Don't route
à
An incoming Group can't be routed back to another
bridge port
Routing Enable
à
A incoming Group can be routed back to another
bridge port
Connection
à
Set up the connection for a bridge port
Active connection
à
Set up this port as the Active side of the connection.
Password
à
Set up a password for this connection. The
password needs to be identical on both sides of the
connection and is always 8 characters long.
Generate Password
à
Automatically generate a random 8-character
password
Remote Port
à
Set up a UDP port for the connection. A different
and free port needs to be used for each connection
Remote IP
à
The IP address of the remote connection. If
routed over the WAN, this will be the external IP
address of the ISP router. Don't forget to set up port
forwarding on the ISP router to the IP address of
the remote Bridge. If on a local Lan, this can be the
IP address of the remote Bridge itself
Backup
à
Set up a backup remote IP address

Set up User Access
To Set up remote User access, you need a Green-GO bridge on the local Green-GO side of
the connection The other side can either be a green-GO device, a green-GO bridge or an
I-phone running the Green-GO app. The Remote User will be the active side of the
connection and the Bridge will be the passive side.
Mode: User Access
User:
à
Select the User to be routed on this bridge port.
Any
à
The user can be selected on the Active side of the
connection, the device becomes a "full member" of the local
network.
User
à
Select afixed user from the current config that is routed
to the Active side.
