RE: Vlan design vs. subnet distribution

Then , I will put all sites in one subnet and different vlans , what is
the benefit from applying vlan here at this time , and I think I should
define vlan interfaces on the core switch and give them IPs , how can I
put IP on a L3 device to route between and all these IPs are in the same
subnet , or I shouldn't define vlan interfaces at all on the core ,
Please when proposing an idea explain it in more details for me
thanx

In a case like that you just need to setup a trunk, traffic will
automaticly pass within the same vlan across all sites
