Configuring Routing Between VLANs
How to Configure Routing Between VLANS
37
Once you have IP routing enabled on the router, you can customize the characteristics to suit your
environment. If necessary, refer to the IP configuration chapters in the Cisco IOS IP Routing
Configuration Guide for guidelines on configuring IP.
Configuring IPX Routing over IEEE 802.1Q
IPX routing over IEEE 802.1Q VLANs extends Novell NetWare routing capabilities to include support
for routing Novell Ethernet_802.3 encapsulation frame types in VLAN configurations. Users with
Novell NetWare environments can configure Novell Ethernet_802.3 encapsulation frames to be routed
using IEEE 802.1Q encapsulation across VLAN boundaries.
To configure Cisco IOS software on a router with connected VLANs to exchange IPX Novell
Ethernet_802.3 encapsulated frames, perform the steps described in the following task in the order in
which they appear.
SUMMARY STEPS
1. enable
2. configure terminal
3. ipx routing [node]
4. interface fastethernet slot/port.subinterface-number
5. encapsulation dotlq vlanid
6. ipx network network
Step 3
ip routing
Example:
Router(config)# ip routing
Enables IP routing on the router.
Step 4
interface fastethernet
slot/port.subinterface-number
Example:
Router(config)# interface fastethernet 4/1.101
Specifies the subinterface on which IEEE 802.1Q will be
used.
Step 5
encapsulation dot1q vlanid
Example:
Router(config-if)# encapsulation dot1q 101
Defines the encapsulation format at IEEE.802.1Q (dot1q)
and specifies the VLAN identifier.
Step 6
ip address ip-address mask
Example:
Router(config-if)# ip addr 10.0.0.11 255.0.0.0
Sets a primary IP address and mask for the interface.
