VLANs

A local area network (LAN) can be divided into multiple distinct virtual LANs (VLANs) with the use of
VLAN switches. This improves the management and security of the network. The broadcast domain of a
device on a VLAN is confined to all devices on the same VLAN.
The Network > VLANs page contains the sections for VLAN Management and VLAN Ethernet Trunk.
