Chapter 13 Interfaces Each VLAN is a separate network with separate IP addresses, subnet masks, and gateways. Each VLAN also has a unique identification number (ID). The ID is a 12bit value that is stored in the MAC header. The VLANs are connected to switches, and the switches are connected to the router. (If one switch has enough connections for the entire network, the network does not need switches A and B.) • Traffic inside each VLAN is layer-2 communication (data link layer, MAC addresses). It is handled by the switches. As a result, the new switch is required to handle traffic inside VLAN 2. Traffic is only broadcast inside each VLAN, not each physical network. • Traffic between VLANs (or between a VLAN and another type of network) is layer-3 communication (network layer, IP addresses). It is handled by the router. This approach provides a few advantages. • Increased performance - In VLAN 2, the extra switch should route traffic inside the sales department faster than the router does. In addition, broadcasts are limited to smaller, more logical groups of users. • Higher security - If each computer has a separate physical connection to the switch, then broadcast traffic in each VLAN is never sent to computers in another VLAN. • Better manageability - You can align network policies more appropriately for users. For example, you can create different content filtering rules for each VLAN (each department in the example above), and you can set different bandwidth limits for each VLAN. These rules are also independent of the physical network, so you can change the physical network without changing policies. In this example, the new switch handles the following types of traffic: • Inside VLAN 2. • Between the router and VLAN 1. • Between the router and VLAN 2. • Between the router and VLAN 3. VLAN Interfaces Overview In the ZyWALL, each VLAN is called a VLAN interface. As a router, the ZyWALL routes traffic between VLAN interfaces, but it does not route traffic within a VLAN interface. All traffic for each VLAN interface can go through only one Ethernet interface, though each Ethernet interface can have one or more VLAN interfaces. Note: Each VLAN interface is created on top of only one Ethernet interface. Otherwise, VLAN interfaces are similar to other interfaces in many ways. They have an IP address, subnet mask, and gateway used to make routing decisions. ZyWALL USG 2000 User's Guide 309

ZyWALL USG 2000 User’s Guide

309

Each VLAN is a separate network with separate IP addresses, subnet masks, and

gateways. Each VLAN also has a unique identification number (ID). The ID is a 12-

bit value that is stored in the MAC header. The VLANs are connected to switches,

and the switches are connected to the router. (If one switch has enough

connections for the entire network, the network does not need switches

and

•

Traffic inside each VLAN is layer-2 communication (data link layer, MAC

addresses). It is handled by the switches. As a result, the new switch is required

to handle traffic inside VLAN 2. Traffic is only broadcast inside each VLAN, not

each physical network.

•

Traffic between VLANs (or between a VLAN and another type of network) is

layer-3 communication (network layer, IP addresses). It is handled by the

router.

This approach provides a few advantages.

•

Increased performance - In VLAN 2, the extra switch should route traffic inside

the sales department faster than the router does. In addition, broadcasts are

limited to smaller, more logical groups of users.

•

Higher security - If each computer has a separate physical connection to the

switch, then broadcast traffic in each VLAN is never sent to computers in

another VLAN.

•

Better manageability - You can align network policies more appropriately for

users. For example, you can create different content filtering rules for each

VLAN (each department in the example above), and you can set different

bandwidth limits for each VLAN. These rules are also independent of the

physical network, so you can change the physical network without changing

policies.

In this example, the new switch handles the following types of traffic:

•

Inside VLAN 2.

•

Between the router and VLAN 1.

•

Between the router and VLAN 2.

•

Between the router and VLAN 3.

VLAN Interfaces Overview

In the ZyWALL, each VLAN is called a VLAN interface. As a router, the ZyWALL

routes traffic between VLAN interfaces, but it does not route traffic within a VLAN

interface. All traffic for each VLAN interface can go through only one Ethernet

interface, though each Ethernet interface can have one or more VLAN interfaces.

Note: Each VLAN interface is created on top of only one Ethernet interface.

Otherwise, VLAN interfaces are similar to other interfaces in many ways. They

have an IP address, subnet mask, and gateway used to make routing decisions.
