Join a Virtual LAN
A Virtual LAN (VLAN) is a logical grouping of network
devices put together as a LAN regardless of their physical
grouping or collision domains. VLANs let a user see and access
only specified network segments. This increases network
performance and improves network security.
VLANs offer the ability to group users and stations together
into logical workgroups. This can simplify network
administration when connecting clients to servers that are
geographically dispersed across the building, campus, or
enterprise network.
