Steps for Configuring Routing

By default, IP routing is disabled on the switch. For detailed IP routing configuration information, see
the Cisco IOS IP Configuration Guide, Release 12.2 from the Cisco.com page under Documentation >
Cisco IOS Software Releases > 12.2 Mainline > Configuration Guides.
In these procedures, the specified interface must be a switch virtual interface (SVI)—a VLAN interface
created by using the interface vlan vlan_id global configuration command and by default a Layer 3
interface. All Layer 3 interfaces on which routing will occur must have IP addresses assigned to them.
See the
The switch supports 16 static routes (including user-configured routes and the default route) and any
Note
directly connected routes and default routes for the management interface. The switch can have an IP
address assigned to each SVI. Before enabling routing, enter the sdm prefer lanbase-routing global
configuration command and reload the switch.

Builds routing table and distributes it to stack members.
Uses its MAC address as the router MAC address. To notify its network peers of the new MAC
address, it periodically (every few seconds for 5 minutes) sends a gratuitous ARP reply with the new
router MAC address.
If you configure the persistent MAC address feature on the stack and the stack master

changes, the stack MAC address does not change during the configured time period. If the
previous stack master rejoins the stack as a member switch during that time period, the stack
MAC address remains the MAC address of the previous stack master. See the
Persistent MAC Address" section on page
"Assigning IP Addresses to SVIs" section on page
To support VLAN interfaces, create and configure VLANs on the switch or switch stack, and assign
VLAN membership to Layer 2 interfaces. For more information, see
VLANs."
Configure Layer 3 interfaces (SVIs).
Enable IP routing on the switch.
Assign IP addresses to the Layer 3 interfaces.
