+
+Description
+-----------
+
+This module and its functio are are supposed to handle interfaces and
+switching them from one bridge to another.
+
+Requirements and installation
+-----------------------------
+
+Just install the module:
+
+ $ScriptInstallUpdate mod/bridge-port-to;
+
+Configuration
+-------------
+
+The configuration goes to ports' comments (`/interface/bridge/port`).
+
+ /interface/bridge/port/add bridge=br-guest comment="default=dhcp-client, alt=br-guest" disabled=yes interface=en1;
+ /interface/bridge/port/add bridge=br-intern comment="default=br-intern, alt=br-guest" interface=en2;
+ /interface/bridge/port/add bridge=br-guest comment="default=br-guest, extra=br-extra" interface=en3;
+
+Also dhcp client can be handled:
+
+ /ip/dhcp-client/add comment="toggle with bridge port" disabled=no interface=en1;
+
+Add a scheduler to start with default setup on system startup:
+
+ $ScriptInstallUpdate global-wait;
+ /system/scheduler/add name=bridge-port-to on-event="/system/script/run global-wait; :global BridgePortTo; \$BridgePortTo default;" start-time=startup;
+
+Usage and invocation
+--------------------
+
+The usage examples show what happens with the configuration from above.
+
+Running the function `$BridgePortTo` with parameter `default` applies all
+configuration given with `default=`:
+
+ $BridgePortTo default;
+
+For the three interfaces we get this configuration:
+
+* The special value `dhcp-client` enables the dhcp client for interface `en1`. The bridge port entry is disabled.
+* Interface `en2` is put in bridge `br-intern`.
+* Interface `en3` is put in bridge `br-guest`.
+
+Running the function `$BridgePortTo` with parameter `alt` applies all
+configuration given with `alt=`:
+
+ $BridgePortTo alt;
+
+* Interface `en1` is put in bridge `br-guest`, dhcp client for the interface is disabled.
+* Interface `en2` is put in bridge `br-guest`.
+* Interface `en3` is unchanged, stays in bridge `br-guest`.
+
+Running the function `$BridgePortTo` with parameter `extra` applies another
+configuration:
+
+ $BridgePortTo extra;
+
+* Interfaces `en1` and `en2` are unchanged.
+* Interface `en3` is put in bridge `br-intern`.
