The following two bridge types are supported.
Bridges don't have channels on their own.
### Discovery
KNX IP bridges, i.e. IP interfaces, routers, and knxd instances, are discovered through mulitcast communication in the local network.
As a KNX setup is typically static, this in only done during startup of the binding.
Corresponding bridges are added to the inbox.
Additional configuration might be necessary after adding a bridge.
Note that several items per device might be created, as routers typically support routing and tunneling.
Make sure you import only one item per device.
Discovery is not available for serial bridges and device Things described below.
Discovery of IP bridges will not work without further measures if openHAB and the interface run on different network segments,
as multicast traffic is typically not forwarded.
### IP Gateway
The IP Gateway is the most commonly used way to connect to the KNX bus. At its base, the _ip_ bridge accepts the following configuration parameters:
