Generalize: To use router mode when UT is edge of your networks. To use bridge mode when UT is on inside of your other router edge device.

Think router to connect separate networkings - your and ISP. Router have IP address on both NIC.

Think bridge, is transparent, to invisibly connect parts of one same network. Bridge have not IP address on NICs. Have IP address inside it - management address.
