CDRouter 7.0 introduces support for testing basic Layer 2 bridging devices including wireless access points, broadband access devices, and Ethernet switches. CDRouter can be used to verify the following functionality of a DUT operating in bridge mode:

IPv4 and IPv6 forwarding (optionally requires CDRouter IPv6)
TR-069 client, if present (requires CDRouter TR-069)
802.1x port based authentication
VLAN functionality
