Think of the bridge as a switch. You add ports (to the bridge) that you 
want to be part of your switch. \

So you can have untagged traffic on ether5 and ether7 send data to 
vlan20 on ether1 and vlan20 on ether9. You put all of those in a bridge.

You cannot add a bridge to a bridge.

I suggest a diagram that shows what's on this device and where the IPs 
are and maybe their routes. It could help to clear up what you are 
trying to do.
