What are two advantages of using a Layer 3 switch with SVIs for inter-VLAN routing? (Choose two.)
- A router is not required.
- It switches packets faster than using the router-on-a-stick method.
- SVIs can be bundled into EtherChannels.
- SVIs can be divided using subinterfaces.
- SVIs eliminate the need for a default gateway in the hosts.
Explanation: Modern, enterprise networks rarely implement inter-VLAN routing using the router-on-a-stick method. Instead, they use faster Layer 3 switches because they use hardware-based switching to achieve higher-packet processing rates than routers. Layer 3 switches provide a much more scalable method to provide inter-VLAN routing.
