Additional Information
A LAN interface is used as a Layer 3 gateway for clients. A LAN interface can be used for the following purposes:
- As an interface with the LAN (client side)
- As a transit network for environments with L3 switches
- As a sub-interface as NATIVE or with a VLAN tag
- For static and BGP LAN routing
- Assigned to a port or a bypass pair
- As a DHCP relay or listener for a local DHCP server
- For network context definition to denote the originating network for traffic and in path-selection policies to configure different paths and priorities for traffic coming from different networks:
- For example, Gmail traffic from corporate wi-fi and guest wi-fi can have different policies and different network contexts.
