Routing Function
The Routing function is logically independent from and sits “on top” of the
Layer 2 VLANs. The function of the Inter-VLAN router is to route traffic
between VLANs (subnets). The router has an “interface”, or “virtual port”,
for each VLAN that it is routing traffic.
This interface is configured similarly to a physical interface, but is not
associated with any particular physical interface.(
