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?
