All P580 and P882 Multiservice switches can be configured as an IP, IPX, and AppleTalk router with virtual interfaces. Virtual interfaces are mapped to physical ports or VLANs. Layer 3 IP traffic is routed between the virtual interfaces.
Ports become members of VLANs by being assigned or by rules. Multiple VLANs can share a single trunk port. In contrast, multiple physical ports can be associated with a single VLAN. In all cases, traffic that arrives and leaves the same VLAN is bridged, not routed.
