FS700TS switch – Configuring VLANs (single unit)
VLAN-Definition
VLANs are logical subgroups within a Local Area Network (LAN), which combine user stations,
and network devices into a single unit, regardless of the physical LAN segment to which they are
attached. VLANs allow network traffic to flow more efficiently within subgroups. VLANs use
software to reduce the amount of time it takes for network changes, additions, and moves to be
implemented.
Notes when setting-up VLANs
• A VLAN does not have a minimum number of port
• VLANs work at the OSI Layer 2
• A VLAN can be created per unit, device or via logical connection/combination
•
Broadcast and Multicast traffic is transmitted only in the VLAN in which traffic is generated.
• To allow traffic between VLAN a device working at protocol level (Layer 3) is required
VLAN-Tagging
VLAN tagging provides a method of transferring VLAN information between VLAN groups. VLAN
tagging attaches a 4-byte tag to packet headers. The VLAN tag indicates to which VLAN the
packets belong. VLAN tags are attached to the VLAN by either the end station or the network
device. VLAN tags also contain VLAN network priority information.
