VLAN Setting
A Virtual LAN (VLAN) is a logical network grouping that limits the broadcast domain,
which would allow you to isolate network traffic, so only the members of the same VLAN
will receive traffic from the ones of the same VLAN. Basically, creating a VLAN from a
switch is logically equivalent of reconnecting a group of network devices to another
Layer 2 switch. However, all the network devices are still plugged into the same switch
physically.
VLAN Member Setting (Port Based)
The switch provides port based VLAN configuration. Users can enable the function via
VALN member setting. That is a set of ports allowed to be forwarded from the source
port. The overall number of VLAN groups that this switch can support is 16.
