Configuring IP Routing
In Layer 3 switches, such as the Cajun P550 and P880 switches,
capabilities that once were provided by additional hardware, such as
bridges, switches, and hubs, are now provided as virtual
configurations inside the router. You can emulate bridging
capabilities inside the chassis of Layer 3 switches through Virtual
Local Area Networks (VLANs). The ability to emulate bridging
hardware through a virtual means is referred to as IP Routing.
In the Cajun P550/P880 Manager, you can configure IP routing for
Layer 3 switches in Routing Manager.
