You can group users according to some shared characteristic, such as a common business
function or a common protocol. A single switch may have several independent VLANs within
it. Below is a example that R&D, Manufacturing and Administration group can be partitioned
into two different VLAN group, even members in different group can’t talk directly, but they
still share the same server, such as MRP server, printer server in Adminstration group…etc.
