<p>A connecting device (8-12) for connecting a communication network (1-4) to a bridge device (6, 7) for transferring data to another network in which each network carries data in frames including routing information associated with the data. Each connecting device (8, 12) comprises an analysing unit (17) for monitoring an arriving data frame, the analysing unit being adapted to monitor the routing information in the frame and to generate control data relating to the routing information. Output ports (25) through which the control data and the frame respectively are supplied to a connected bridge device.</p> |
