Security > VLAN
A Virtual LAN is a network of computers that behave as if they are connected to the
same wire even though they may actually be physically located on different segments
of a LAN. VLANs are configured through software rather than hardware, which make
them extremely flexible. One of the biggest advantages of VLANs is that when a
computer is physically moved to another location, it can stay on the same VLAN
without any hardware reconfiguration. Figure 6.3.1 and Figure 6.3.2 illustrate the
VLAN configuration page.
