INTERVLAN ROUTING
A VLAN is a broadcast domain and unique ip subnet
Switches operate at layer2 (Data link Layer)
VLANS cannot communicate without L3 (Network Layer)
The L3 communication is called inter-vlan routing
Inter-vlan routing is a process of forwarding network traffic from one vlan to another using a router
The Subnets of your network facilitate the routing process.
Router interfaces can be connected to separate vlans.
Devices on vlans send traffic through the router(L3) to other vlans.

Traditionally vlan routing required multiple interfaces.
Each interface was connected to a separate switch port & configured with a different subnet
The switch port is connected to the router in access mode.

DTP Dynamic Trunking Protocol

Trunk negotiation is managed by the Dynamic Trunking Protocol (DTP), which is a Cisco proprietary Point-to-Point Protocol.
These various modes are configured using the switchport mode interface command
Switch trunk interfaces support different trunking modes.

  • Access
  • Dynamic desirable (default mode on Catalyst 2950 and 3550)
  • Dynamic auto
  • Trunk
  • Non-negotiate
  • dotq-tunnel (Not an option on the Catalyst 2950.)
