    Virtual LANs (VLANs) Virtual LANs (VLANs) The switch supports port-based virtual LANs (VLANs). A VLAN is a collection of ports that belong to a single broadcast domain. (That is, all ports carrying traffic for a particular subnet address would belong to the same VLAN.) This allows workgroups to be defined on the basis of their logical function instead of their physical location, and does not require recabling.
