-               <para>
-                       The bridge hook creates an ethernet bridge which acts as an unmanaged network
-                       switch. It contains one or multiple phyisical network interfaces or virtual
-                       devices which will be connected to each other.
-               </para>
-               <para>
-                       The bridge hook is the prefered hook for local area network zones which are
-                       connected to an ethernet network.

-                                               <emphasis>Spanning Tree Protocol</emphasis> (STP).
-                                               This protocol is used to avoid loops in networks by
-                                               dynamically disabling packet forwarding on links.
-                                       </para>
-                                       <para>
-                                               It is highly recommended to leave this option enabled
-                                               when you add more than one device to the zone.
-                                               Read below how the behaviour of STP can be changed.
