So if you have L3 switches, why not just make the SVI local to the clients
in that vlan, and just route (instead of trunk) off the switch.

 

The only time I would do what you said, is of course if my network was
comprised of L2 only switches (2960's etc) and I had the SVI for the vlans
on an upstream 3750, 6509, etc.

Hi Joe,

 

I'm really talking about local VLANs, not end-to-end VLANs.

 

 

Thank you.

It's 2007, I used L3 routed links...

Why do we ever need end to end vlans? Local vlan's only for me...

Hi All,

Thanks for sharing.

I used to think that we can easily VLAN-hop across 802.1Q trunk by
configuring different native VLAN at both ends. Having labbed it, I realize
STP actually blocks off those inconsistent VLANs.

In real-world, I typically set the native VLANs to a bogus non-routable VLAN
and prune it ("switchport trunk allowed vlan remove...") from the trunk.
What's your practice?

Thank you.

B.Rgds,
