802.1Q
The router supports up to five sets of VLANs, which are used to divide networks
into several segments. Dividing networks makes them easier to manage and
enhances performance and security through isolation.
802.1Q is a protocol for carrying VLAN traffic on an Ethernet. 802.1Q will append
a tag which includes VLAN membership information within the original packet.
The devices can communicate with others with the same VLAN ID. In this way, it
will make the network manageable and secure.
Go to Configuration > Port Management > 802.1Q.
