hi, I am trying to have a clearer picture of the layer 3 switching concept.
Assuming that I have a Core Catalyst 6 series switch with layer 3 switching capabilities, I have a Access layer switch connected to the core with two port label Vlan 1 subnet 1 and Vlan 2 subnet 2, when frames is sent from from Vlan 1 to Vlan 2 on the same Access switch, my understanding is that for layer 3 switching , it will evoke a route one and switch the rest concept , my question is that, after the first route , if no Access list has been created, will the the Access switch be smart enough to perform internal switching, that is , frame direct from Vlan 1 to Vlan 2 internally within the Access switch. If the answer is no, Are there switches on the market that is routing by this concept, please advice , thanks to all the guys who have tried to entertain all my questions Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=63304&t=63304 -------------------------------------------------- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
