Shared Server
The switch compliant to the IEEE802.1Q tagging VLAN standard
allows ports to exist in multiple VLANs for shared resources, such as
servers, printers, and switch-to-switch connections. It is also
possible to have resources exist in multiple VLANs on one switch as
shown in the following figure.
Figure 3-4. Shared Server
In this example, stations on different VLANs share resources. As a result,
VLAN 1 and VLAN 2 can access VLAN 3 for printing. The broadcasts
from ports configured in VLAN3 can be seen by all VLAN port members
of VLAN3.
