What happens if I add more switches in the network? Is there any limitation or any calculation for that?
I've heard the term "non-routable VLAN" but am not sure what exactly it means, why it exists or when it's used. It would seem perhaps just by definition that it's an existing virtual local area network (VLAN) that just doesn't have a VLAN interface created for it anywhere on purpose. Do you use it...
