VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) is a technology that can solve broadcasting issues. A LAN can be divided into several VLANs logically, and only the hosts in a same VLAN can communicate with each other.

Here is a configuration example for 802.1Q VLAN.

Network Topology:

Network Requirement:

  • Hosts in the same department can communicate with each other.
  • Hosts in different departments cannot communicate with each other.
  • Both department A and department B can visit the FTP server.

Configuration Scheme:

  • Create VLAN 10 and VLAN 20 for department A and department B respectively.
  • Create VLAN 30 for the FTP server, and add the hosts in department A and department B to VLAN 30.
  • Configure PVIDs for ports. With correct PVID settings, both department A and department B can visit the FTP server, but cannot communicate with each other.
