Dell Networking N2000/N3000/N4000 Series Switches
The Dell Network N2000 series supports limited routing and multicast capabilities.
See the Users Configuration Guide section “Feature Limitations and Platform
Constants” for supported capabilities.
The Routing Module provides the base Layer 3 support for Local Area
Network (LAN) and Wide Area Network (WAN) environments. The Dell
Networking switches allows the network operator to build a complete Layer
3+ configuration with advanced functionality. As the Dell Networking
defaults to Layer 2 switching functionality, routing must be explicitly enabled
on the Dell Networking to perform Layer 3 forwarding. For Dell Networking
switches, routing is only supported on VLAN and Loopback interfaces for in-
band ports. It is not possible to route packets to or from the out-of-band
interface.
Static Routes/ECMP Static Routes
The operator is able to configure static and default routes with multiple next
hops to any given destination. Permitting the additional routes creates several
options for the Dell Networking network operator.
1 The operator configures multiple next hops to a given destination,
intending for the router to load share across the next hops.
2
The operator configures multiple next hops to a given destination,
intending for the router to use the primary next hops and only use the
other next hops if the primary next hops are unusable.
The operator distinguishes static routes by specifying a route preference
value. A static route with a lower preference value is a more preferred static
route. Next hops with the same preference are grouped into a single ECMP
route. A less preferred static route is used if the more preferred static route is
unusable. (The link is down or the next hop IP address cannot be resolved to a
MAC address.)
