What is multi VLAN?
The multi-VLAN port is a feature which allows switch for configuring a single port for two or more vlans. This feature allows users from different VLANs to access a server or router without implementing InterVLAN routing capability. Multi-VLAN can’t be used to connect between switches.
What is the purpose of InterVLAN routing?
Inter-VLAN routing is the process of forwarding network traffic from one VLAN to another VLAN. There are three inter-VLAN routing options: Legacy Inter-VLAN routing: This is a legacy solution.
How do I set the routing between VLANs?
The simplest way to enable routing between the two VLANs to simply connect an additional port from each VLAN into a Router. The Router doesn’t know that it has two connections to the same switch — nor does it need to. The Router operates like normal when routing packets between two networks.
How to use multilayer switch for VLAN routing?

Which is a legacy inter-VLAN routing method?
Legacy inter-VLAN routing In this method, multiple router interfaces are used, each connecting to a switch port in different VLANs. These interfaces are served as default gateways, which requires additional cabling when the network has to be expanded. Hence, adding additional network cables and improving infrastructure is more expensive.
How does intervlan routing work on a catalyst switch?
VLANs divide broadcast domains in a LAN environment. Whenever hosts in one VLAN need to communicate with hosts in another VLAN, the traffic must be routed between them. This is known as inter-VLAN routing. On Catalyst switches it is accomplished by the creation of Layer 3 interfaces (switch virtual interfaces (SVIs) ).
How to setup a home network with multiple VLANs?
The router is handling the routing, obviously, between the VLANs that were created and is a router on a stick setup. All of the devices, even the cable modem, get connected to the switch. The diagram below shows how I setup my network The VLAN 10 through 30 are user networks. But why would I need three user networks in a two person home?
