Routing
Rev. 9.41 Module 3 – 69
Types of routes
Layer 3 switches and routers support two types of routes:
 Direct routes
 Indirect routes
Direct routes are for local networks, and indirect routes are for remote networks.
In the above network, for the 5406zl switches, the 10.1.30.0/24 network is remote.
The switches would need an indirect route.
However, for the 6600 switch, the 10.1.30.0/24 network is local. The switch will,
therefore, have a direct route.
