Catalyst switch routing

[John Torkos]

I have a situation where I need to route traffic from one network to another via a Calayst 3560. The scenario is illustrated below. I'm looking for options as I'm trying to avoid purchasing another router. Can I just setup a default route? Or can I setup OSPF or EIGRP? What is the best scenario to do this?

Thanks.

You can configure the 3560 to route IP.

Check this article for an example -> http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk389/tk815/technologies_configuration_example09186a008015f17a.shtml#conf

If you are running an IP services image on the 3560 switch, you should be able to run OSPF and EIGRP.. First enable routing using the command "ip routing" and then you can configure eigrp or ospf

What image are you running in the switch? If you are running an ipbase image then you will not be able to do routing..

Hope this helps..

John,

If you have an IP base image running on the 3560, you can use Static routes or RIP for routing. For protocols like OSPF,EIGRP, BGP, you would need ip services.
