Configuring Layer 3 Switching
Layer 3 switch ASICs are somewhat limited in how switching rules can be defined. These limitations do not allow
configuring arbitrary firewall rules directly in the Layer 3 switch hardware. For sophisticated firewall rules, the
firewall has to be implemented in software and the Layer 3 Switch must not switch traffic that is subject to firewall
processing.
Whenever a change is made to the firewall configuration, some of the dynamically learned Layer 3 switching
rules might conflict with the new firewall configuration. To resolve potential conflicts, dynamically learned Layer
3 switching rules are flushed upon any changes to the firewall configuration. The dynamically learned Layer 3
switching rules then have to be re-learned while the new firewall rules are applied.
For statically configured Layer 3 switching rules, take care to avoid conflicts between Layer 3 switching and the
firewall. It should be understood that static Layer 3 switching rules always take precedence. Therefore, you must
thoroughly examine the switch configuration for potential conflicts with the firewall. For more information about

Configuring Layer 3 Switching
To configure Layer 3 switching, do the following:
NOTE
When hardware acceleration is used, and learning mode is set to flow-oriented, fragmented IP packets
cannot be forwarded. To overcome this limitation, if it is known there will be a significant amount of
fragmented packets, set learning mode to host-oriented.
1. Change the mode to
Edit Private
or
Edit Exclusive
