Dear All

   we had the saem problem!! we just deploy AG3.0.1 venue server and it 
works fine within the network using multicast. However, we try to set 
Bridge and using the default one (nietzsche.mcs.anl.gov:8030) as register 
server. it seems wokring after solving some firewall issue. when we get in 
to our venue, still can not see this bridge. is it possible to deploy 
register server locally. how can we point this bridge to our local use? in 
AG2.4, it can point to specifc venue. but did not see this option in the 
AG3 bridge? BTW, we can not see bridges even in the Argone default venue, 
same problme happend during the AG retreat? how can we solve this problem?

Best regard!
