Switchport IP Address...

Apr 03, 2006 1 Replies

Hello all,



Beyond defining a VLAN 1 management IP address, what is the purpose of assigning Layer 3 addresses to individual switchports on a Layer 2 switch?



The switch is a Catalyst 2950 running 12.1 without the enhanced image.



Many thanks,


Joey Lanza



Layer 3 IP addressing will allow the communications between differnt devices for each port.
