Explanation

An SVI (Switched Virtual Interface) is a logical interface on a Layer 3-capable switch used to route traffic between VLANs. This is particularly useful in environments where voice and data traffic need to be separated, as each type of traffic can be assigned to different VLANs and routed accordingly. SVI (Switched Virtual Interface): A virtual interface created on a switch for inter-VLAN routing. VLAN Routing: Enables the routing of traffic between VLANs on a Layer 3 switch, allowing for logical separation of different types of traffic, such as voice and data. Use Case: Commonly used in scenarios where efficient and segmented traffic management is required, such as in VoIP implementations.
