Layer 3 Switching
The Rapier switch provides Layer 3 switching and routing over VLANs. Once
a VLAN has been created (see “Virtual LANs” on page 25), the VLAN name
can be used wherever a logical interface is required in commands for
configuring routing protocols.
VLAN names are of the form:
VLAN-vlanname
or
VLANn
where vlanname is the manager-assigned name of the VLAN, and n is the
VLAN identifier (VID).
For example, if a VLAN is created using the command:
CREATE VLAN=admin VID=11
then the following names can be used to identify the VLAN in routing
commands:
vlan-admin
vlan11
The following sections illustrate the use of VLANs for IP, RIP, IPX, AppleTalk
and RSVP. For a complete description of all the protocols supported by the
switch, see the AR Series Router Reference Manual at
http://www.alliedtelesyn.co.nz/support/rapier/
.
Internet Protocol (IP)
The switch performs IP routing at wire speed between VLANs. To add the
admin VLAN as an IP interface, use either of the following commands:
ADD IP INTERFACE=vlan-admin
ADD IP INTERFACE=vlan11
The command:
SHOW IP INTERFACE
displays the interfaces enabled for IP routing (Figure 20 on page 52).
Parameter Description
PORT=
port
The port on which the event will activate the trigger.
Argument Description
%1 The port number of the port which has just gained coherent light.
