6.2.5.2 set host vlan
Use this command to create a secure VLAN where only designated users are allowed access. A host
VLAN can be specifically created, for example, for device management. This would allow a work
station connected to the host VLAN to manage all ports on the switch, while making management
secure by preventing access via ports assigned to other VLANs.
