+The following is an example for your bridge_rules file. Note, all bridging is ONE-WAY!
+Rules for an IPSC network indicate destination IPSC network for the Group ID specified
+(allowing transcoding of the Group ID to a different value). Group IDs are specified
+as hex strings.
+
+The IPSC name must match an IPSC name from dmrlink.cfg.
+
+The example below cross-patches TGID 1 on an IPSC network named "IPSC_FOO" with TGID 2
+on an IPSC network named "IPSC_BAR".
+
+THIS EXAMPLE WILL NOT WORK AS IT IS - YOU MUST SPECIFY NAMES AND GROUP IDS!!!
