+          If you say Y here, then your Linux box will be able to act as an
+          Ethernet bridge, which means that the different Ethernet segments it
+          is connected to will appear as one Ethernet to the participants.
+          Several such bridges can work together to create even larger
+          networks of Ethernets using the IEEE 802.1 spanning tree algorithm.
+          As this is a standard, Linux bridges will cooperate properly with
+          other third party bridge products.
+
+          In order to use the Ethernet bridge, you'll need the bridge
+          configuration tools; see <file:Documentation/networking/bridge.txt>
+          for location. Please read the Bridge mini-HOWTO for more
+          information.
+
+          If you enable iptables support along with the bridge support then you
+          turn your bridge into a bridging IP firewall.
+          iptables will then see the IP packets being bridged, so you need to
+          take this into account when setting up your firewall rules.
+          Enabling arptables support when bridging will let arptables see
+          bridged ARP traffic in the arptables FORWARD chain.
