@karencho777 , considering bridges are tor-related subject you don't have to do anything other than configure the tor client config file to actually work as a "bridge user" (please, refer to tor's spec file to check how to setup/request a bridge https://gitweb.torproject.org/torspec.git/tree/attic/bridges-spec.txt#n114)

The only thing you need to check under nipe's cli is how you setup it. For example, we have some code in the "develop" branch that allow custom configuration file, but while it isn't released to master you can run:

$ ./nipe.pl install

then modify the /etc/tor/torrc config file to enable tor to run as a bridge user, and finally:

$ ./nipe.pl start

I never really used tor with bridge, so if you find any issues with this process or doubts, please let me know and I try to figure out what could be done. Also check tor's project page and FAQ for more info about that, I'm sure they have far more info on that than we here :)
