4.9 VLAN
The VLAN is a group of ports that may spread around the network but communicate as
though they belong to one subnet. By using VLAN, all ports can be reorganized into
separate broadcast domains for security reasons and reduce bandwidth occupation
instead of using routers to divide whole network into subnets. It produces cleaner network
environment by reducing broadcast traffic and simplify network management by allowing
you to move devices to another VLAN without changing physical connections. The
switch support 2 VLAN type: 802.1Q VLAN and Port Group VLAN.
802.1Q VLAN:
Before enabling 802.1Q VLAN, pay attention to:
w All ports are default to VLAN 1 and assigned PVID 1.
w Though you can configure VLAN group with VLAN ID from 1 to 4094. Due to
hardwares restriction, the maximum PVID supported on this switch is 255.
