Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN)
A Virtual LAN is a group of devices on one or more LANs that are configured (using management software) to communicate as if those devices were connected to the same physical network.
A VLAN (virtual LAN) is a network model that logically divides a network into several different VLANs. VLANs are not limited by the physical conditions of the network, as they can be configured virtually without regard to the equipment’s physical setup. Therefore, VLANs offer flexibility in network configuration and make it easier for network administrators to segment their networks according to the functions and security needs of those networks.

Creating an Inter Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN)A Virtual LAN is a group of devices on one or more LANs that are configured (using management software) to communicate as if those devices were connected to the same path, even though they are actually on different LAN segments. For computers on different VLANs to connect, a layer 3 device, such as a router, is required. The router used for VLAN routing must be capable of trunking to the switch. Therefore, the router must have a Fast...

Creating a Dynamic Router NetworkDynamic Routing (Dynamic Router) is routing performed by routers that automatically create data communication paths according to established settings. If there are changes in the network topology, the router will automatically create new routing paths. Dynamic routing operates at the network layer of computer networks within the TCP/IP Protocol Suite. Compared to the advantages and disadvantages of static routing, dynamic routing is preferable for...
