Hi group,

i have 3 switches

SW1---SW2---SW3

trunks are in between, ONLY SW1&3 has the VLAN 10
 
now if i have 2 clients in vlan 10, one on SW1 and the other on SW3 wants to
communicate, can they do it without creating vlan 10 on SW2 ??

the first thought was yes, but it seems that it will not work, so any explanation ??
i thought that this traffic will be carried through the trunk int, passing SW2, even if vlan 10 was not created on it

Regards
