No component that comes with POX does routing in the sense of traditional IP routers. If your routes are static, it's relatively easy to build a component that does this. If you need to communicate with existing dynamic routing it's a bit more complex, but still doable. POX doesn't currently come with an example of this, but probably will someday.
POX does come with examples, however, which can more or less make a bunch of connected switches act like one big L2 switch. If there are traditional routers at the edge of this, that's fine... -- Murphy On Oct 10, 2013, at 4:23 PM, durga <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello All, > > This is my first email to the group. > Was wondering if POX has routing capability.
