4.10. VLAN Settings
A Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) is a group of IP Network devices whose IP Addresses have been set to run on a particular IP Network. These devices will typically only ‘see’ the other devices on their network and most likely the Internet. A VLAN ID
or ‘tag’ can be assigned to data packets that pass through the AN100/300 to maintain the integrity of the VLAN by identifying
which data belongs to which VLAN.
