VLAN（VLAN） VLAN (virtual network) 2007-06-27 16:39, wide area network and LAN technology are widely used and widely used. In particular, the development of LAN technology is faster, from traditional LAN to switching LAN, and then to VIRTUAL LOCAL AREA NETWORKS (VLAN). VLAN technology is a big step forward from traditional LAN technology, allowing them to own their own space in the vast information field. 1. VLAN concept VLAN is a local network that is logically divided on the physical network, working group, application, etc., which is a broadcast domain and has no relationship with the physical location of users. Network users in VLAN communicate via LAN switches. Members of a VLAN cant see members of another VLAN. 2. VLAN characteristics All members in the same VLAN share a VLAN ID to form a virtual local network; Members in the same VLAN can receive a broadcast packet from other members of the same VLAN, but not the broadcast packets sent from other members of the VLAN; There is no direct communication between VLAN members, which need to be routed through routing support, while members of the same VLAN can communicate directly through VLAN switches without routing support. 3. VLAN characteristics VLAN feature is: control the communication activities, isolation broadcast data network management of hue, facilitate optimum combination of the working party, a member of the VLAN as long as have a VLAN ID can not be restricted by the physical location, the location of the mobile station at random; To increase the security of the network, VLAN switch is a one-channel screen, which can only be passed by grouping data with VLAN membership, which is much more secure than using a computer server to make a firewall. Network bandwidth is fully utilized and network performance is greatly improved. 4. Switched Ethernet VLAN and ATM VLAN From a technical point of view, VLAN can be realized either in switched Ethernet or in ATM backbone. In comparison, it is relatively difficult
