4-6 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.

4-6-1 VLAN Member Setting (Port Based)
