Configuring basic settings of a VLAN interface
You can use VLAN interfaces to provide Layer 3 communication between hosts of different VLANs.
VLAN interfaces are virtual interfaces used for Layer 3 communication between different VLANs. They do
not exist as physical entities on devices. For each VLAN, you can create one VLAN interface. Assign the
VLAN interface an IP address and specify it as the gateway of the VLAN to forward traffic destined for
an IP network segment different from that of the VLAN.
