Chapter 1 Overview
• Multiple VPN routing/forwarding (multi-VRF) instances in customer edge devices to allow service
providers to support multiple virtual private networks (VPNs) and overlap IP addresses between
VPNs (requires the IP services feature set)
• VRF Lite for configuring multiple private routing domains for network virtualization and virtual
private multicast networks
Support for these IP services, making them VRF aware so that they can operate on multiple routing
•
instances: HSRP, uRPF, ARP, SNMP, IP SLA, TFTP, FTP, syslog, traceroute, and ping
Fallback bridging for forwarding non-IP traffic between two or more VLANs (requires the IP
•
services feature set)
Static IP routing for manually building a routing table of network path information
•
Equal-cost routing for load-balancing and redundancy
•
Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) and ICMP Router Discovery Protocol (IRDP) for using
•
router advertisement and router solicitation messages to discover the addresses of routers on directly
attached subnets
Protocol-Independent Multicast (PIM) for multicast routing within the network, allowing for
•
devices in the network to receive the multicast feed requested and for switches not participating in
the multicast to be pruned. Includes support for PIM sparse mode (PIM-SM), PIM dense mode
(PIM-DM), and PIM sparse-dense mode (requires the IP services feature set)
• Multicast Source Discovery Protocol (MSDP) for connecting multiple PIM-SM domains (requires
the IP services feature set)
• Distance Vector Multicast Routing Protocol (DVMRP) tunneling for interconnecting two
multicast-enabled networks across nonmulticast networks (requires the IP services feature set)
DHCP relay for forwarding UDP broadcasts, including IP address requests, from DHCP clients
•
DHCP for IPv6 relay, client, server address assignment and prefix delegation
•
• IPv6 unicast routing capability for forwarding IPv6 traffic through configured interfaces (requires
the IP services feature set)
IPv6 default router preference (DRP) for improving the ability of a host to select an appropriate
•
router
IPv6 unicast routing capability for forwarding IPv6 traffic through configured interfaces (requires
•
the IP services feature set)
Support for EIGRP IPv6, which utilizes IPv6 transport, communicates with IPv6 peers, and
•
advertises IPv6 routes
IP unicast reverse path forwarding (unicast RPF) for confirming source packet IP addresses
•
Nonstop forwarding (NSF) awareness to enable the Layer 3 switch to continue forwarding packets
•
from an NSF-capable neighboring router when the primary route processor (RP) is failing and the
backup RP is taking over, or when the primary RP is manually reloaded for a nondisruptive software
upgrade (requires the IP services feature set)
NSF-capable routing for OSPF and EIGRP that allows the switch to rebuild routing tables based on
•
information from NSF-aware and NSF-capable neighbors (only stacking-capable switches)The
ability to exclude a port in a VLAN from the SVI line-state up or down calculation
Intermediate System-to-Intermediate System (IS-IS) routing supports dynamic routing protocols for
•
Connectionless Network Service (CLNS) networks (requires the IP services feature set)
