Chapter 3 Overview of Routing Between Virtual LANs
What Is a VLAN?
Figure 3-1 LAN Segmentation and VLAN Segmentation
Security
VLANs also improve security by isolating groups. High-security users can be
grouped into a VLAN, possibly on the same physical segment, and no users
outside that VLAN can communicate with them.
Broadcast Control
Just as switches isolate collision domains for attached hosts and only forward
appropriate traffic out a particular port, VLANs provide complete isolation
between VLANs. A VLAN is a bridging domain; all broadcast and multicast
traffic is contained within the VLAN.
