Brouted
For Brouted VLANs, there are only two IP interfaces - one for the Routed
uplink interface and a second for the Bridged LAN-side interface. A
Brouted VLAN may have multiple LAN ports as members, and all ports
will use the same IP subnet. So Brouted means that the LAN side is like a
bridge, but has a routed interface for the WAN side.
– Brouted VLANs enable local peer-to-peer communications between
all client devices, just like Bridged VLANs do. All clients will have
IP Addresses in the same subnet.
– A DHCP Server may be configured in the zNID 24xx to
automatically assign local IP addresses in the assigned subnet.
– NAT is typically enabled on a Brouted VLAN, using private IP
Addresses locally and a single public IP address on the uplink
interface
Figure 119: For brouted all LAN side interfaces are in one subnet. The uplink is
in another subnet
See Creating brouted connections, page 172 for the procedures for
creating brouted connections.
