I have a raspberry pi 5, sonicwall router and two servers. I am not able to access my servers because they need an ethernet connection. I want to create a bridge port connection from raspberry pi 5 to my sonicwall soho. I will be able to access the sonic via a webpage on my laptop. I will configure it then connect the two servers.How do i set this up?

Bridging different technologies (WiFi, Ethernet) is more difficult. And I will suggest that you change approach from bridging to routing.

what do you mean routing a bridge is a route?

A bridge is a "Switch" a layer 2 device in the "OSI" model.
Routing is a layer 3 device in the "OSI" model.
A switch uses MAC adr. to direct the traffic to the right destination.
A router uses TCP/IP adr. to send the traffic to the right destination.

When I see this it makes me want to purchase a switch case solved?
