I'll take a guess. The ethernet segments of R1 and R2 are not in the same
broadcast domain( I'm guessing). So IP has to be routed, if those same
segments were in the same broadcast domain then you could bridge them. Maybe
you need a tunnel to make it work without routing IP. I have rack time
now, but I'm gonna set it up on dynamips tonight and see what I can see.
