Cisco RV315W Broadband Wireless VPN Router Administration Guide
A virtual LAN (VLAN) is a group of endpoints in a network that are associated by
function or other shared characteristics. Unlike LANs, which are usually
geographically based, VLANs can group endpoints without regard to the physical
location of the equipment or users.
The VLANs allow you to segregate the network into LANs that are isolated from
one another. Any PC that is connected to the specified LAN port is on a separate
VLAN and cannot access other VLANs.

Configuring LAN Interfaces

Use the LAN Interface Settings page to configure the settings of the LAN
interfaces.
To configure the LAN interface settings:
Click Port Settings > LAN > LAN Interface Settings. The LAN Interface Settings
page opens.
In the VLAN Interface Settings area, enter the following information:
• Select VLAN: Select a VLAN that you want to configure from the drop-down
menu. The default is VLAN1. You can add new VLANs in the VLAN Settings
page and assign the physical LAN ports to the specified VLANs. See
Configuring LAN Interfaces
• IP Address: Enter the subnet IP address for the VLAN.
• Netmask: Enter the subnet mask for the VLAN.
• DHCP Server: Check Enable to allow the RV315W to act as a DHCP server
and assign IP addresses to all devices that are connected to the LAN. Any
new DHCP client joining the LAN is assigned an IP address of the DHCP pool.
Check Disable to disable the DHCP server on the RV315W.
• Starting IP: Enter the starting IP address of the DHCP pool if you enable the
DHCP server.
• Ending IP: Enter the ending IP address of the DHCP pool if you enable the
DHCP server.
