How to Use the UTN Server in VLAN Environments

The UTN server supports VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) according to 802.1Q.
A VLAN divides a physical network into logical subnetworks. Each subnetwork is its own broadcast domain, so
data packets cannot be exchanged between subnetworks. VLANs are used to structure networks and, above all,
to secure them.
Each USB device can be assigned to a VLAN. To transfer VLAN data via the USB ports, you must first enter the
VLANs on the UTN server. After this, the USB ports used for forwarding data must be linked to the specified VLANs.
The access to USB devices can be regulated particularly well with VLAN: a defined
group of network users may use certain USB devices.
Inform yourself on how to implement VLAN in your environment and then set up the
UTN server for it.
Important:
SNMP works only over LAN and the VLAN specified in the selection menu.
