In Bridging section:
- Use of hostid tags and manual page entities where needed - s/IP Masquerading (NAT)/network address translation (NAT)/ which is more consistent with all our docs and the applications names - Some tags fixes - IPFIREWALL_DEFAULT_TO_ACCEPT is not anymore an undocumented option, so fix a comment In ISDN section: - expand "sync/TA" --> synchronous card/TA - s/I/We - s/page/section/ - Some punctuation and case fixes - Remove an useless ironic comment about Windows 95 in the ascii art version of a diagram.
