put ip address on a bridge ?

Fri Jan 09, 2015 10:02 pm

Hi, I have an RB2011.
ether1 is gateway, ether2 is master for 3,4,5 , ether6 is master for 7,8,9,10 ; then I have bridged ether2 , ether6, and sfp1.

When I configured LAN IP on the RB2011 (from the Quick Set view) the local mikrotik IP had been assigned to ether2.

It works, but shouldn't it be assigned to the bridge?
In the wiki I read "Putting an IP address to a physical interface included in a bridge would mean actually putting it on the bridge interface itself" ... But are there any differences?
