How to manage L2 and L3 switches
With the most comprehensive feature set, Managed Switches provide the best application experience, highest level of security, and the most accurate network control/management capabilities. It also offers the highest scalability within the category of fixed configuration switches. So, managed switches are typically deployed as aggregate/access switches in large networks or as key switches in relatively small networks. Managed switches should support both L2 switching and L3 IP routing, but some switches only support L2 switching.
