IP ROUTING
Routing is a method for distributing traffic throughout an IP network. It is
used to join LANs at the network layer (Layer 3) of the Open Systems
Interconnection (OSI) model. A router provides both filtering and bridging
functions across the network.
This chapter explains routers, protocols, and how your Switch allows
bridges and routers to interoperate. It covers the following topics:
■ What is Routing?
■ What is IP Routing?
■ Benefits of IP Routing
■ IP Routing Concepts
■ Multiple IP Interfaces per VLAN
■ Implementing IP Routing
■ IP Routing Protocols
■ User Datagram Protocol (UDP) Helper
■ Advanced IP Routing Options
For detailed information on setting up your Switch for management, see
the Getting Started Guide that accompanies your Switch.
For detailed descriptions of the web interface operations and the
command line interface (CLI) commands that you require to manage the
Switch please refer to the Management Interface Reference Guide
supplied in HTML format on the CD-ROM supplied with your Switch or on
the 3Com Web site.
