4. Configure Routing 4 The switch supports IP routing. When a packet enters the switch, the destination MAC address is checked to see if it matches any of the configured routing interfaces. If it does, the switch searches the host table for a matching destination IP address. If an entry is found, the packet is routed to the host. If no matching entry is found, the switch performs a longest prefix match on the destination IP address. If an entry is found, the packet is routed to the next hop. If no match is found, the packet is routed to the next hop specified in the default route. If no default route exists, the packet is passed to the software to be handled appropriately. The routing table can include static entries that were manually added. The host table can include static entries that were manually added and entries that were dynamically added through ARP. This chapter contains the following sections. • Configure IP Settings • Configure IPv6 • Configure VLAN Routing • Configure Router Discovery • Manage Routes • Configure Address Resolution Protocol 211
