• Port-based
Port-based VLAN allows assigning the appliance's LAN ports to VLANs,
effectively transforming the appliance's four-port switch into up to four firewall-
isolated security zones. You can assign multiple ports to the same VLAN, or
each port to a separate VLAN.
Figure 11: Port-based VLAN
Port-based VLAN does not require an external VLAN
therefore simpler to use than tag-based VLAN. However, port-based VLAN is
limited, because the appliance's internal switch has only four ports.
You can define up to ten VLAN networks
