- About Inter-VLAN Routing - Inter-VLAN Routing is the capability to route network traffic between VLANs. This feature - enables you to build Virtual Private Clouds (VPC), an isolated segment of your cloud, that can - hold multi-tier applications. These tiers are deployed on different VLANs that can communicate - with each other. You provision VLANs to the tiers your create, and VMs can be deployed on - different tiers. The VLANs are connected to a virtual router, which facilitates communication - between the VMs. In effect, you can segment VMs by means of VLANs into different networks that - can host multi-tier applications, such as Web, Application, or Database. Such segmentation by - means of VLANs logically separate application VMs for higher security and lower broadcasts, - while remaining physically connected to the same device. - This feature is supported on XenServer and VMware hypervisors. + About Inter-VLAN Routing (nTier Apps) + Inter-VLAN Routing (nTier Apps) is the capability to route network traffic between VLANs. + This feature enables you to build Virtual Private Clouds (VPC), an isolated segment of your + cloud, that can hold multi-tier applications.
