4.1.1.2 VLAN Interface
The hosts belong to different VLANs cannot communicate. Route or the layer 3 switch is
needed for forwarding. 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
packet based on IP address.
