Hi Everyone,
I have 3 sites.
Site 1
HP-2530-48G-PoEP-2SFPP (Main/Core Switch)
HP 2915 (Access Switch)
Site 2
HP Switch 5412zl (Main Core Switch)
4 x HP 2530 (Access Switch)
Site 3
HP Switch 5412zl (Main Core Switch )
4 x HP 2530 (Access Switch)
All of the access switches have fibre links to their core switch.
Site 1 is connected to Site 2 via fibre (trunk link)
Site 2 is connected to Site 3 via fibre (trunk link)
Site 2 is using a "router on a stick" to route traffic between VLANs and to the internet
All sites carry 7 VLAN's traffic. There are machines which use static IP addresses and it would be very costly to change their programming, these machines are at all 3 sites and thus the subnets can't be split up so that each site has its own subnet.
I'd love to use the switches for layer 3 routing and also connect site 3 and site 1 (currently the link is disconnected, I've considered STP).
Does anyone know of a way to let the switches do routing or is it not possible?
