Jan 31, 2017 at 0:29 comment added rnxrx There is no universe where a given L2 solution is more robust than L3. More convenient in the short run? Sure. But robust? One episode of unknown unicast flooding or broadcast/multicast storms will put that to rest..

Jan 30, 2017 at 18:05 comment added atapaka I do not need L2 solution, I just consider it more robust, considering that L3 solution which has been suggested to me seems to be very complex. I prefer logical network grouping of devices, as this creates a significant simplification to security rules (routing, nat etc) and thus it is less prone to error (forgetting a particular rule when changes are made leads to opened hole). But maybe I am wrong, maybe there is a way to do it in L3. I just have not heard about it yet.
