Compare Layer 2 and Layer 3 network switches and learn when to use each one to create a properly functioning network
The Layer 3 switch combines the Layer 2 switching technology with the Layer 3 forwarding function, which means that the Layer 3 switch is based on the Layer 2 switch. The routing function is added to the above, and the IP addresses of different VLANs can be configured, and the communicatio...
This is not a simple Layer 2 switch and router superimposed. Layer 3 routing modules are directly superimposed on the high-speed backplane bus of Layer 2 switching, breaking through the interface rate limit of traditional routers, and the rate can reach tens of Gbit/s. Together with backplane...
Configure interface-based VLAN assignment on the switch for Layer 2 forwarding. Configure the router as the gateway of users to implement Layer 3 forwarding across network segments through sub-interfaces or VLANIF interfaces. Configure the router as the DHCP server to assign IP addresses to users....
2 years ago @bras02, does it mean that although I have made same configuration for both layer 2 and layer 3 switch ( i.e configuring Vlan 10 and 20 on same interface ), the behaviour depends on Control Plane and Data plane of layer 2 and layer 3 switch? LikeReply bras02 2 years ...
/ietf-interfaces:interfaces/interface/huawei-interfaces:common/switch-router-mode Configures switchover between Layer 2 and Layer 3 modes on an interface. The value is as follows: true: Switchover is enabled. false: Switchover is disabled. Configuring the Switchover from Layer 3 Mode to Layer 2...
