VLAN Name

Virtual LAN (VLAN) is a logical network segmented by function or application without a regard to physical location. A VLAN breaks single network into multiple sections thus effectively creating multiple stand alone networks out of the same network. This is secure and reduces number of broadcasts received on individual device.

VLAN name can be 32 characters in length. You can configure upto 4094 port-based VLANs on a layer 2 and 3 switches. The default VLAN (VLAN1) uses default values and you cannot create, modify, delete or suspend activities on the default VLAN.
