Section 12.1
Managing Virtual Switches
Virtual switches bridge different network segments together in a way that is independent of any particular
protocol.
Network traffic between segments is forwarded regardless of the IP and MAC addresses defined in the packet.
In a virtual switch, forwarding is done in Layer 2 and allows all network traffic, including Layer 2 Multicast (i.e.
GOOSE, ISO), IP Multicast, Unicast and Broadcast messages, to travel through the virtual switch tunnel without
any modifications.
A virtual switch can be useful, in particular, for GOOSE messaging when the sender and receiver need to
communicate through a routable IP network. Since there is no IP encapsulation for the Layer 2 traffic going
through the virtual switch, network latency is minimized for the traffic between end devices.
The virtual switch appears on the device as a virtual Ethernet interface over a physical interface (i.e. T1/E1 HDLC-
ETH or Ethernet port) between two routers. Physically, the two routers can be in different locations.
There can be multiple virtual switch instances in a router. Each instance can include two or more interfaces, but an
interface can only be a member of one virtual switch instance.
NOTE
There can be multiple virtual switch interfaces over a T1/E1 HDLC-ETH interface, in which the virtual
switch interfaces are separated by creating a VLAN over the T1/E1 HDLC-ETH interface.
