Note This section is an abbreviated look at establishing and maintaining routes. It is
intended as a reminder and not as a comprehensive configuration of routing protocols. A
Layer 3 switch works exactly like a router for maintaining routes. Refer to Cisco Field
Manual: Router Configuration by Cisco Press for more detailed configuration informa-
tion. For more general information on routing and routing technologies, see the “Further
Reading” section at the end of the chapter.
