     Improving LAN security. By assigning user groups to different VLANs, you can isolate them at Layer 2. To enable communication between VLANs, routers or Layer 3 switches are required.  Flexible virtual workgroup creation. As users from the same workgroup can be assigned to the same VLAN regardless of their physical locations, network construction and maintenance is much easier and more flexible.
