Re: Single domain two IP subnets

A VLAN SWITCH (Do you see the word SWITCH?) does NOT route between VLANS.
ROUTERS ROUTE between VLANS. SWITCHES create the VLANS the ROUTERS ROUTE
between.

And practically all VLAN switches are also routers internally
which allows them to ROUTE between their VLANs. Were
they not, they would need an external router to do this job and
thus to move traffic from one VLAN to another is a ROUTING
job.

You have apparently taken the word "Switch" (applied to the box
as a whole) and incorrectly assumed that these are not HYBRID
DEVICES which combine configurable bridged segments comprising
multiple PORTS with routing to other such VLAN segments.


Did you read ANY of the tutorials at the links I provided? Have you even
bothered to read ANYTHING about this? Why don't you READ what EVERYBODY
other than you has to say about this.

Yes, and you article agrees with me explicitly.

I am sorry if you ability to read English is so poor but that I
can not fix by mere explanation.

Arguing this further is just making you look foolish and incompetent
as you were trying to avoid. Note that this appearance has NOTHING
to do with me, except that you are choosing to direct your responses
to me.

You are arguing with someone who creates VLANs for Banks, Hospitals,
Between Cities - every day! Do you really think I can do that without
knowing how a VLAN works?

Apparently you still misunderstand bridging and routing and how
this applies to VLANs.

This was you original error which you continue to insist on comitting.

Sheesh... I bet you think you know more about hearts than a cardiologist!

Cardiologists, no, but perhaps some in other fields. It isn't really
that hard if you apply yourself and are willing to learn.

Do you know what they call the guy who finishes last in medical
school?

Answer: Dr.


The point of this old joke can be applied to someone who sites
evidence of employment as evidence of expertise but cannot
give the simple basics or even understand them when they are
explained carefully.

Think it through this time PLEASE, as I have no reason to wish
to embarrass you further due to your insistence on remaining
ignorant.

This is an EXCELLENT tutorial on VLANs. Not weighted too heavily toward
Cisco. It really explains how VLANs segregate networks into broadcast
domains and demonstrates how routers are used to forward traffic BETWEEN
Vlans. If you have the time, give it a read.


Do you not even see what you have written above that
than a VLAN Switch ROUTES between the various
VLANs on that switch (and perhaps elsewhere) AND
BRIDGES all segments on the same VLAN?

Think it through real carefully....

(You article even discusses how ROUTING is used between
VLANs; since each VLAN is a broadcast domain unto itself
this is required for IP to function.)
