A bridge that is used to form an extended LAN consisting of a tree structure in which only one active path connects any two stations in the extended LAN. Stations on the interconnected LANs are not aware of the presence of transparent bridges. Transparent bridges learn appropriate routes for messages by observing transmissions that take place on the LANs to which they are connected and forwarding messages that they receive to the opposite network when required.
