Creating brouted connections
Brouted VLANs enable local peer-to-peer communications between client
devices, like bridged VLANs, but has a routed VLAN for the uplink interface.
Network Address Translation is typically enabled for Brouted VLANs using
private IP addresses locally and a single IP address on the uplink interface.
When in the Brouted mode, a DHCP server may be configured to
automatically assign local IP addresses (See
DHCP server on page 209 ).
To create a brouted connection
