CCNP (switch)-Inter VLAN Routing (SVI with Lab)

SVI (switched virtual interface)

If you have Multilayer switch than router is not required for Inter VLAN Routing, because that switch can work as a router. you have to create interfaces only for existing VLANs. In this technique the interfaces created for existing VLANs are known as SVI (Switched Virtual Interfaces).

(you can create interface for any VLAN, but those interfaces will up which will be created for existing VLAN, here you have to remember that you cannot up interfaces with no shutdown command)

Lab SVI

We have to perform four steps:

  1. Create VLANs
  2. Assign membership of those VLANs to ports
  3. Enable ip routing
  4. Create interfaces

Switch#config

Configuring from terminal, memory, or network [terminal]?

Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.

Step 1:

Switch(config)#vlan 20

Switch(config-vlan)#name IT

Switch(config-vlan)#exit

Switch(config)#vlan 30

Switch(config-vlan)#name HR

Switch(config-vlan)#exit

Step 2:

Switch(config)#int fastEthernet 0/1

Switch(config-if)#switchport mode access

Switch(config-if)#switchport access vlan 20

Switch(config-if)#exit

Switch(config)#int fa 0/11

Switch(config-if)#switchport mode access

Switch(config-if)#switchport access vlan 30

Switch(config-if)#exit

Step 3:

Switch(config)#ip routing

Step 4:

Switch(config)#int vlan 20

Switch(config-if)#

%LINK-5-CHANGED: Interface Vlan20, changed state to up

%LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface Vlan20, changed state to up

Switch(config-if)#ip address 20.1.1.1 255.0.0.0

Switch(config-if)#exit

Switch(config)#int vlan 30

Switch(config-if)#

%LINK-5-CHANGED: Interface Vlan30, changed state to up

%LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface Vlan30, changed state to up

Switch(config-if)#ip address 30.1.1.1 255.0.0.0

Switch(config-if)#exit

Switch(config)#exit

Switch#

%SYS-5-CONFIG_I: Configured from console by console

Switch#wr

Building configuration…

[OK]

Switch#show ip route                                    (with this command you will see interfaces directly connected)

C   20.0.0.0/8 is directly connected, Vlan20              (directly connected)

C   30.0.0.0/8 is directly connected, Vlan30              (directly connected)
