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. They restrict bandwidth
and packet size. They can provide DHCP services, and they can verify the gateway is
available.
