VLANs routed with C3560 and Proxy ARP
We have several offices and use a provider to route betwean the private networks. At one of the offices we have the network 192.168.2.0/24 that is routed and accessible from the other offices.
Now we want to use VLANS in that office. We are planing to use C2960G-48TC-L as access switch and have a C3560G-24TS-S to route between the VLANs.
The address of the provider router is 192.168.2.254.
We are planing to create several VLANs:
192.168.2.1-62 /255.255.255.192 192.168.2.65-94 /255.255.255.224 etc...The routed port of the catalyst 3560 connected to the router will have the address 192.168.2.253 and the C3560 and C2960 will be connected through a trunk.
All the VLANs will use their own default gateways set on the Catalyst
3560.So the diagram will be:
ROUTER---C3560---C2960---VLANS
When the router will try to connect to any of the addresses in the VLANs it will do so in a way that C3560 will answer through proxy ARP.
Will this work or are we missing something?
