Hi,

Is there any RFC for inter-VLAN communication.?. How can i perform
inter-VLAN communication without an need of an external router.

Thanks

Easy: with an internal router.

Apart from that, if you want direct layer 2 LAN connectivity, why use separate
VLANs at all?

best regards

Cisco has implemented a proprietary VLAN Trunking Protocol right..I am
looking for something equivalent to that.

What connection do you see between that an inter-vlan routing
or other inter-vlan communication?

get a layer 3 switch (ie: a switch that is also a router)
actually, layer 3 switches are better than just a "switch that is also a
router" - they are faster than most routers, since they do the routing
in hardware.

That's for trunking, if i understand it correctly. Lets you mux together
a bunch of vlans inside a vlan.

Still doesn't route between the vlans.

Walter-

I was wondering about that - isn't that vlan trunking basically vlan
inside a vlan type stuff?
