I have a question to add into this interesting thread, which adds a twist to Abhijit's scenario.

I have a very similar setup to the diagram below, with the added difference that on my setup the IP addresses of the C3 switch on each of the VLANs (10,20 and 30) is set as the default gateway for the clients connected to the B3 switches.

Above C3 switch in the diagram below, I have a firewall / internet router on VLAN 40, and I would like the C3 switch to route all non-local traffic to this firewall.

I have been unable to get this to work, as the default route command on the C3 switch seems only to work for the C3 switch itself, and not for any routed networks.


Does anyone have experience with this?

Hello,

 

I am describing the scenario.

 

Five B3 switches will be connected with one C3 switch. Each B3 SW will be used as L2 SW and they will be in separate Vlan. One server which will be in separate vlan, will be directly connected to C3 switch. Now in C3 SW Vlan routing will happen. Attaching the worst Diagram came out of my best effort.

 

 

What should I do?
