How do I add a route to a VLAN?
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Enable routing on the switch with the ip routing command.
- Make note of the VLANs that you want to route between.
- Use the show vlan command in order to verify that the VLANs exist in the VLAN database.
- Determine the IP addresses you want to assign to the VLAN interface on the switch.
Which method is used to route between VLANs?
The modern method of performing inter-VLAN routing is to use Layer 3 switches and switched virtual interfaces (SVI).
How to configure VLAN routing between Switch and router?
– configure L3 VLAN interfaces (a.k.a. SVI) for each VLAN with the respective IP address. This device will be were all of your HOST gateways will live for these networks so the IP’s assigned to each SVI would ideally be x.y.z.1 (e.g. 172.23.33.1 255.255.255.0).
Do you need IP address to route between VLANs?
Determine the IP addresses you want to assign to the VLAN interface on the switch. For the switch to be able to route between the VLANs, the VLAN interfaces must be configured with an IP address.
How to configure intervlan routing on Layer 3 Cisco switches?
If you need information on how to configure VLANs, access ports, and trunking on the 3550, refer to Creating Ethernet VLANs on Catalyst Switches for the specific Cisco IOS version you run on the switch. The information in this document is based on a Catalyst 3550-48 that runs Cisco IOS Software Release 12.2 (44)SE6 EMI.
How to configure default route for Cisco switch?
Configure the default route for the switch. From the diagram in the Task section, note that the IP address of the default router is 200.1.1.2. If the switch receives a packet for a network not in the routing table, it forwards it to the default gateway for further processing. From the switch, verify that you can ping the default router.
