L2 SwitchL2 Switch > Create VLAN
VLANs are logical subgroups of a Local Area Network (LAN) created via software
rather than defining a hardware solution. VLANs combine user stations and
network devices into a single domain regardless of the physical LAN segment to
which they are attached. VLANs allow network traffic to flow more efficiently
within subgroups. VLANs managed through software reduce the amount of time to
implement network changes.
VLANs have no minimum number of ports, and can be created per unit, per device,
per stack, or any other logical connection combination, as VLANs are software
based and not defined by physical attributes.
