Subject: interesting behaviour of the switches
Hello, guys!
I have mentioned interesting behaviour. Could you pleas confirm this or tell
that this is incorrect?
sw1-vlan30-------vlan30-sw2-vlan50------------------vlan50--sw3
Between sw1,sw2 and sw3 is just a simple dot1q trunk.
Configuration:
sw1-vlan30: 30.30.30.2
sw2-vlan50: 30.30.30.1
sw2-vlan50: 50.50.50.1
sw3-vlan50: 50.50.50.2
I can ping from 50.50.50.2 to 30.30.30.2 even without configuring
default-gateway on sw 3. I assume that it happenes because when sw3 doesn't
know the route it just broadcasts the ip packet and the same does sw1 in
opposite to the router.
Is it correct? Or there is some other explanation of this. Thank you.
