A network technician implements a switch with multiple VLANs.

To enable communication between VLANs, the technician must configure inter-VLAN routing. On a Layer 3 switch, this is commonly done by creating an SVI (Switched Virtual Interface) for each VLAN. An SVI provides a virtual Layer 3 interface with an IP address that acts as the default gateway for hosts in that VLAN. Once SVIs exist and routing is enabled, the switch can route traffic between VLAN subnets internally, allowing clients in different VLANs to communicate (subject to any security controls). This aligns with Network+ (N10-009) infrastructure objectives covering VLANs, Layer 2/Layer 3 switching, and the requirement for routing to cross broadcast domains.

ACLs can permit or deny inter-VLAN traffic, but they do not create the routing function by themselves. VXLAN is an overlay tunneling technology used mainly in data centers to extend Layer 2 networks over Layer 3 fabrics, not the standard solution for basic VLAN-to-VLAN connectivity on a switch. VPC is not the required configuration element for inter-VLAN routing in this context. Therefore, configuring SVIs is the correct and most direct answer.
