B-4 Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs)
v1.0, May 2007
• Setting up third VLAN group (Marketing), VLAN ID = 03, with membership of ports 2~4 and
8.
• Setting up fourth VLAN group (Accounting), VLAN ID = 04, with membership of ports 5, 6,
and 8.
• Setting up first VLAN group (IT), VLAN ID = 01, with membership of all ports.
• Since VLAN ID 01 has been setup by default, you will have to remove the ports that belong to
all other VLAN groups except port 8.
• Ports 2 and 3 are kept for connected file server and printer server use. Sales and Marketing
departments can share file archives and printing services.
• Port 8 provides Gigabit speed for e-mail server and Internet connection.
The specific ports above have the following functions:
• VLAN 1: Port 7, for IT department to monitor and control activities on all other VLANs.
• VLAN 2: Port 1, for Sales department, port 2 and 3 connect to file archives and printer server.
• VLAN 3: Port 4, for Marketing department, port 2 and 3 connect to file archives and printer
server.
• VLAN 4: Port 5 and 6, for Accounting department, its work is kept secret from other
departments except IT.
Results of this Configuration
If a packet comes in on port 1, it can go to ports 1, 2, 3, and 8, as those are the only ports in that
VLAN. A Sales person on port 1 can get to the Internet, send and receive e-mail, access the
marketing department print server or file archives, but can not access any marketing user nor any
Accounting user.
If a Marketing user sends out a broadcast message, the Sales and Accounting departments are not
affected by the message, because it does not go out on their ports. Only the Marketing department
and the IT group will receive the broadcast message.
If an IT user sends out a broadcast message, everyone receives it.
