VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) is a network technique that solves broadcasting issues
in local area networks. A local area network is partitioned into several VLANs, and all VLAN
traffic remains within its VLAN. Therefore, you can group and isolate APs and clients to
enhance network security. VLANs group devices logically instead of physically, so devices
in the same VLAN can be located in different places.
