yes and no.<br />
If you have IP forwarding enabled then the traffic will route directly on the switch if not then it would go up to the core to find its way to that VLAN.

so if you turn it off then it the routing isn't in place somewhere else then it will stop communicating

Thanks for your reply, when you say &quot;core&quot; what does that actually mean?<br />

Hi All, <br />
<br />
Newbie question regarding VLANS:<br />
<br />
There are many VLANS set up in my location, when interrogating the switch (Extreme Summit x250e) most of them have &quot;IP Forwarding Enabled&quot; <br />
<br />
1) Does this mean that traffic can pass from one VLAN to another<br />
2) If I turn this off, will it stop VLAN 1 &quot;talking&quot; to VLAN 2?<br />
<br />
Thanks<br />

Network Management involves issues that are independent of specific hardware or software, including email policies, upgrade planning, backup scheduling and working with managed service providers for Desktop-As-A-Service (DaaS), Software-As-A-Service (SaaS) and the like through the use of tools, coupled with manufacturer standards, best practice guidelines, policies and procedures plus all other relevant documentation. Network management also includes monitoring, alerting and reporting, management reporting, planning for device or service updates, the backup of configurations, the setting of key performance indicators and measures (KPIs/KPMs), associated service level agreements and problem records as part of the IT Service Management (ITSM) framework.

Network design and methodology, also known as network architecture, is the design of a communication network. It is a framework for the specification of a network's physical components and their functional organization and configuration, its operational principles and procedures, as well as data formats used in its operation. In telecommunication, the specification of a network architecture may also include a detailed description of products and services delivered via a communications network, as well as detailed rate and billing structures under which services are compensated.
