VLAN configuration

A Virtual LAN (VLAN) can be thought of as a broadcast domain that exists within a switch or a defined set of switches. By grouping switch ports into VLANs, traffic flooding is limited since devices can only communicate directly with devices belonging to the VLAN. Creating a VLAN from a switch is the logical equivalent of reconnecting a group of devices to another Layer 2 switch. However, the network devices retain their same physical connection. The switch supports port-based and 802.1Q (tagged-based) VLAN. In the default configuration, the VLAN option is disabled.

VLAN configuration - Port-based VLAN

With port-based VLAN, the port is assigned to a VLAN. Therefore, all devices attached to a given port should be members of the same VLAN. As with other VLAN configurations, the packets forwarded using this method do not leak into other VLAN domains on the network. After the port has been assigned to a VLAN, devices on the port cannot send to or receive from
