For an example that shows how to allow the switch to dynamically create RADIUS-assigned VLANS, see "Allowing Dynamic Creation of RADIUSAssigned VLANs" on page 341. Configuring VLANs Using the Dell OpenManage Switch Administrator This example assumes that network administrator wants to create the VLANs in Table 20-8: Table 20-8. Example VLANs VLAN VLAN Name VLAN ID Type 100 Engineering Portbased 200 Marketing Portbased 300 Sales MACbased 400 Payroll Portbased Purpose All employees in the Engineering department use this VLAN. Confining this department's traffic to a single VLAN helps reduce the amount of traffic in the broadcast domain, which increases bandwidth. All employees in the Marketing department use this VLAN. The sales staff works remotely but occasionally comes to the office. Since these employees do not have assigned work areas, they typically plug their laptops into a network port in an available cubicle, office, or conference room. The payroll department has sensitive traffic and needs its own VLAN to help keep that traffic private. 810 VLANs
