VLANs allow network traffic to flow more efficiently within subgroups. VLANs use software to reduce the amount of time it takes for network changes, additions, and moves to be implemented. VLANs can be created per unit, per device, or through any other logical connection combination, since they are software-based and not defined by physical attributes. VLANs function at Layer 2. Since VLANs isolate traffic within the VLAN, a Layer 3 router working at a protocol level is required to allow traffic flow between VLANs. Layer 3 routers identify segments and coordinate with VLANs. VLANs are Broadcast and Multicast domains. Broadcast and Multicast traffic is transmitted only in the VLAN in which the traffic is generated. 4.4.1 VLAN Mode There are 3 types of VLAN modes supported in the switch: 17

VLAN Setting
VLANs are logical subgroups with a Local Area Network (LAN) that combine
user stations and network devices into a single unit, regardless of the physical
LAN segment to which they are attached. VLANs allow network traffic to flow
more efficiently within subgroups.
VLANs use software to reduce the amount of time it takes for network
changes, additions, and moves to be implemented.
VLANs can be created per unit, per device, or through any other logical
connection combination, since they are software-based and not defined by
physical attributes. VLANs function at Layer 2. Since VLANs isolate traffic
within the VLAN, a Layer 3 router working at a protocol level is required to
allow traffic flow between VLANs. Layer 3 routers identify segments and
coordinate with VLANs. VLANs are Broadcast and Multicast domains.
Broadcast and Multicast traffic is transmitted only in the VLAN in which the
traffic is generated.
