Interface VLAN in Router

Dear All,

Kindly let me know, when do we create interface vlan in the router. Would appreciate if you can support with an example.

Thanks,

Ash

In a router the only time you will use a SVI is if you have some of the hwic etherswitch cards installed . The only way to put an address on those is to use a SVI and put the port in a vlan , you cannot make the etherswitch ports a routed port.

In the past , when the L3 switches are not popular , Creating vlan in the router is very often , but now ,L3 switches are very cheap , Vlan in router is not used as often as before.
