[c-nsp] SVI or not SVI

[Brian Desmond]

What is your goal (more specifically than connecting the two boxes)? If
you make the port part of a vlan and put the IP on an SVI then you can
have other ports on the switch part of that subnet/vlan. If you make it
a routed port than you're going to have a /30 I'd imagine - just a point
to point link to your juniper. Routed ports aren't part of a vlan. My
feeling is that you want a routed port here given your description,
though.

Hello,

 

I am in the process of configuring my new Cisco Cat 6504 with Sup32.
Interface 2/48 is going to be connected to my interface on my Juniper
border
router. Something like this...

 

Juniper M10 ---> Cat 6504 

 

My question is, what is the proper way to do this connection? Should int
2/48 be a switchport and then create a SVI with the ip address. Or
should it
NOT be a switchport and I configure the ip directly on the interface.
But if
I place the ip directly on the interface, then I am unable to use the
"switchport mode access" and "switchport access vlan XX" on the
interface.

 

Thanks,

 

Brendan
