| Question 5 |
What is the primary purpose of a VLAN?
| Demonstrating the proper layout for a network | |
| Simulating a network | |
| To create a virtual private network | |
| Segmenting a network inside a switch or device |
Question 5 Explanation:
1. A virtual local area network (VLAN) is a logical group of workstations, servers and network devices that appear to be on the same LAN despite their geographical distribution. A VLAN allows a network of computers and users to communicate in a simulated environment as if they exist in a single LAN and are sharing a single broadcast and multicast domain.
2. Higher-end switches allow the functionality and implementation of VLANs.
3. VLANs address issues such as scalability, security, and network management. Network architects set up VLANs to provide network segmentation
2. Higher-end switches allow the functionality and implementation of VLANs.
