1. InterVLAN Routing Design and Implementation

2. What Routers Do Intelligent, dynamic routing protocols for packet transport Packet filtering capabilities Connectivity enhancements – DHCP, NAT, QoS, policy-based routing Connectivity between LAN and WAN

3. Routing Issues Isolated broadcast domains –Linked by routers (Layer 3) Sending nonlocal packets –Routing protocols, gateway of last resort, default routes Supporting multiple VLAN packets across VLAN boundaries –ISL solves problem

4. ISL Supported over Fast Ethernet links –Single ISL link (trunk) can carry traffic from multiple VLANs Packets encapsulated with ISL VLAN header appropriate to destination and routes to appropriate interface

5. Routing in a Switched Network interVLAN routing –Add a route processor in switched network to provide layer 3 routing Every packet goes through the router Layer 3 switching (RSM- route switch module) –Router running IOS software plugs into switch backplane Appears as module with single 800 Mb half duplex trunk port and one MAC address Multilayer switching (MLS) –Router sees only first packet; sets up switching paths to bypass the router Cisco Express Forwarding (CEF) –Distributed switching mechanism

6. RSM Details Provides multilayer switching and inter- VLAN routing between switched VLANs –Can be installed in slots 2 through 12 –Maximum number of modules is 7 for Cat 5500 –RSM is mapped through VLAN 0 and VLAN 1 VLAN 0 to channel 0; VLAN 1 to channel 1 VLAN 0 assigned ROM MAC address VLAN 1 assigned base MAC address from 512 available MAC addresses

7. Routing with Multiple Physical Links Use one link for each VLAN on switch to connected router –Each packet travels across a link reserved for VLAN traffic Useful when switches and router are already available and can be quickly connected Not a good idea to use when network grows Trunk links –Use only one link to router – router on a stick or one- armed router Integrated Router –Route processor is inside the switch for tighter integration of layer 2 and layer 3 components

8. Routing Over Trunk Lines 802.1q and ISL trunks –Use Fast Ethernet or Gigabit Ethernet –Each frame identified with VLAN number Frame encapsulated as it leaves switch –Offer scalability because single link can transport many VLANs –Requires link bandwidth overhead 30-byte header (ISL) or 4-byte header (802.1q)

9. Routing with an Integrated Router Route Switch Module (RSM) –Runs Cisco ISO software –Interfaces to switch through backplane – channel 0 and channel 1 Route processor is module with route switch in the module- type field –Use show module command –Use session to telnet from switch to router Multilayer Switch Feature Card (MSFC) –Shortcuts switch layer 3 and higher protocols – to be covered in detail later

10. VLAN Connectivity and Trunk lines (config)# int 2/3.1 (config-if)#encap isl vlan2 Ip address n.n.n.n s.s.s.s –Each subinterface is assigned to specific VLAN –VLAN numbers should match on both router and switch ends

11. Routing Processes Route processor keeps local table of known routes, metrics, interfaces, and neighboring routers –Uses dynamic routing protocols and static routes –(config)# ip routing –(config)# router rip –(config-router)# network n.n.n.n Switch (enable) set ip route default gateway
