The switch supports layer 3 forwarding through VLAN interface. VLAN interface is the virtual
interface of layer 3 mode, for layer 3 communication between the VLANs. It is not the physical entity
on the device. Every VLAN is related to a VLAN interface, and the VLAN interface can forward packet
for the VLAN. Generally, because the VLAN can isolate the broadcasting domain, every VLAN
corresponds to a network segment. VLAN interface is the gateway of the network segment, and it
supports layer 3 forwarding for the message based on IP address.
