Changing the port type of the WAN1/LAN0 interface requires the RV315W to be
rebooted. Note that changing the port type from WAN1 to LAN0 will reboot the
RV315W with the factory default settings. The previous settings that you made on
the RV315W will be lost.
Configuring LAN
A virtual LAN (VLAN) is a group of endpoints in a network that are associated by
function or other shared characteristics. Unlike LANs, which are usually
geographically based, VLANs can group endpoints without regard to the physical
location of the equipment or users.
The VLANs allow you to segregate the network into LANs that are isolated from
one another. Any PC that is connected to the specified LAN port is on a separate
VLAN and cannot access other VLANs.
