4.3 VLAN Management

A virtual LAN, or VLAN, is a logical grouping that allows stations to communicate as if they were physically connected to a single LAN, independent of the actual physical configuration of a network. The IntraCore 35160 supports port-based VLANs, in compliance with the IEEE 802.1Q standard. The following sections describe how to configure and manage VLANs on the switch. For more information on VLANs, see Chapter 7 Switching Concepts.
