16 Configuring Multiple VRF
Multiple Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF) provides a mechanism for segmenting Layer 3 traffic into
virtual routing domains (instances) on the same switch. Each routing instance independently maintains its
own routing and forwarding table, peer, and interface information.
