Appendix C – VLANs
Virtual local area network (VLAN) is a network configuration in
which nodes are grouped into logical, rather than physical networks.
Figure 12 & 13 below shows the difference between LAN and
VLAN. The segmentation in VLAN creates secured areas where
sensitive information is not shared and creates its own broadcast
domain within the group to effectively reduce broadcast traffic,
providing higher network efficiency and security.
