Requirements for IP Routing
Hardware Requirements
To configure your switch as an IP router, you must configure your switch
with the following hardware:
■
Layer 3 supervisor module
* Note: Licensed layer 3 80-series media modules are recommended for
best routing performance.
Software Requirements
To configure your switch as an IP router, with 80-series modules
(Supervisor and Media modules) you must configure your switch with a
minimum of version 5.0 and above.
Minimum Configuration Requirements
Your switch must be configured as follows to successfully create IP routing:
■
VLANs (subnets) have been created to address current or future
network configurations, or if you plan to expand your current
network.
■
Assign an IP address, and subnet mask to each configured IP
interface.
■
IP unicast forwarding must be globally enabled.
■
At least one routing protocol (RIPv1,RIP v2, OSPFv2) must be
enabled, if communication between routers is necessary.
