Pinging 1394 cable system from Network bridge

[ravikzm]

I need to make network bridge with 1394 and LAN adapter PC-B

Traffic flows between A to B on Ethernet and traffic between B to C goes on 1394 interface (Firewire)

For example, see the attachment document

PC-A contain Ethernet card only.

PC-B contains both Ethernet card & 1394 interface card.

PC-C contains 1394 interface card only.

I am able to ping either PC-A to B (Ethernet card)

I am able to ping either PC-B to C (1394 interface)

I am unable to ping either from B to C (1394 interface) or vice versa after making the network bridge.

Do I need to make any changes in Network Bridge after creating it.

I have already installed 1394 drivers in PC-C, because 1394 net adapter is not enabled in Device manager.

Network Bridge display under the Network adapters as “MAC miniport” in device manager.

1394 and Ethernet adapter also displaying in device manager under the Network adapters

OS: Windows XP with SP2.

Firewall: Off mode.

You could have a look at the settings, and possibly post the results for consideration.

If it's XP, then get a command window running, and try the following commands:

ipconfig/all

route print

and then, perhaps, look at what happens when you do a tracert from C to A, and also C to B and B to C

I think it will probably be a routing problem, but possibly firewall.
