Explanation

An IRB (Integrated Routing and Bridging) interface provides routing functionality between VLANs at Layer 3, allowing devices in different VLANs to communicate with each other. IRB Functionality: The IRB interface enables routing between different VLANs by acting as a Layer 3 gateway. Traffic within the same VLAN is handled by Layer 2 switching, while traffic between VLANs is routed through the IRB interface. Layer 3 Routing Between VLANs: Each VLAN can be assigned an IP address on the IRB interface, which allows traffic to flow between VLANs based on Layer 3 IP routing.
