Is SVI and VLAN the same?
An SVI interface can be created for each VLAN that exists but only one SVI can be mapped to each VLAN. An SVI is virtual and has no physical port defined and performs the same functions for the VLAN as a router interface. SVI is also called Interface VLAN.
What are the three types of inter VLAN routing?
There are three inter-VLAN routing options:
- Legacy Inter-VLAN routing: This is a legacy solution.
- Router-on-a-Stick: This is an acceptable solution for a small- to medium-sized network.
- Layer 3 switch using switched virtual interfaces (SVIs): This is the most scalable solution for medium to large organizations.
What is SVI in Cisco router?
A switch virtual interfaces (SVI) or VLAN interface, is a virtual routed interface that connects a VLAN on the device to the Layer 3 router engine on the same device.
How do I find the IP address of the switch virtual interface SVI on switch0?
After the enable command is issued, the show running-configuration command or the show ip interfaces brief command will display the IP address of the switch virtual interface (SVI).
How do I convert SVI to Layer 3 switch?
Layer 3 Switch Configuration (4.3. 3)
- Create the VLANs. First, create the two VLANs as shown in Example 4-13.
- Create the SVI VLAN interfaces. Configure the SVI for VLANs 10 and 20, as shown in Example 4-14.
- Configure access ports.
- Enable IP routing.
How do I find my SVI IP address?
Is SVI a routed interface?
SVI or VLAN interface, is a virtual routed interface that connects a VLAN on the device to the Layer 3 router engine on the same device.
Which interface is the default SVI on a Cisco switch VLAN 1?
Question: Which interface is the default SVI on a Cisco switch? Explanation: An SVI is a virtual interface and VLAN 1 is enabled by default on Cisco switches. VLAN 99 must be configured to be used.
What is the default SVI on a Cisco?
The default SVI on a Cisco switch is VLAN1.
What is inter-VLAN routing?
This method of inter-VLAN routing relies on a router with multiple physical interfaces. Each interface is usually connected to the switch, one for each VLAN.
What is SVI (VLAN interface)?
SVI, also known as the VLAN interface, is a virtual routed interface that connects a VLAN on the device to the Layer 3 routing engine within the same device and can be configured with multiple IP addresses that correspond to the VLANs on the switch.
How do I set up a SVI interface on a switch?
Choose any addresses from the subnet but do not use the IPs required for the SVIs. Add the SVI IP address to the hosts as the default gateway. If your switch doesn’t support the interface range facility, then configure each interface individually.
How do I add an SVI IP address to a host?
For the hosts, you will need to manually add the IP addresses. Choose any addresses from the subnet but do not use the IPs required for the SVIs. Add the SVI IP address to the hosts as the default gateway. If your switch doesn’t support the interface range facility, then configure each interface individually.
