regarding Inter VLAN Routing

[imported_vikku]

Hi

Iam a desktop engineer Iam learning networking

I have query regarding interVLAN routing
Iam trying to implement the below setup

I have three Cisco 3750 switches. Three switches A , B , C are connected in triangle. I have created another link between A ,D and B for redundancy
c
' '
' '
' D '
' '
A------------- B


A- cisco 3750 switch
B- cisco 3750 switch
C- cisco 3750 switch
D- cisco 3750 switch


What routing should I enable on the these switches for inter VLAN routing

How to configure them

Thanks in advance

If you want to route between them, just think of each switch as a router, and each vlan configured as a network interface. Remember to create both the vlan and the vlan interface.

Enable IP Routing on each switch and pick a routing protocol..

hi rathsach


Thanks for ur suggestions

like should i implement static or OSFP which one would you suggest ?

thanks

Personally i would use RIP2. It sounds like your network is fairly small and unless you plan for massive future growth then in my opinion OSPF is overkill.

Take my advice with a grain of salt, i'm not a pro, just 3 years of college and i'm currently studying for my CCNA.

hope this helps.

Edit: and since your trying to build redundancy into your network then you would most likley not want to go the static route.

Hi
Byblyk


The main problem is that the presemt network is ATm based and OSPF routing is used
The ATM backbone consists of Alcatel 9000 series switches ( switsh/router)

Only the main backbone switches are being removed from ATM to CISCO 3750

and the this is an upgrade to the existing network from ATM to Gigabit Ethernet

The ATM backbone switches are connected to the department switches which also perform routing .


My query is how to enable the routing in these switches( cisco 3750) compatible for the ATM switches (Alcatel)

Could you give a sample of OSPF in cisco 3750 switch.

production networks aren't the best place to learn networking, especially on this scale. for sample configurations, google and the cisco configuration guides are your best bet.

most of your configuration is going to depend on your current architecture, which we know nothing about.
