    In the last how to, we performed the firmware upgrade and initial configuration on the HP v1910 24G.

    It’s now time to start placing some VLAN’s onto our switch. A good starting point is why do we use VLAN’s?

    Well a VLAN enables us to:

    - Logically segment a switch into smaller switches, much same way that ESXi allows you to run multiple virtual machines on the same physical hardware.

    - Create logical boundaries so that traffic from one VLAN to another VLAN is permitted or not permitted e.g. User VLAN accessing Server VLAN.

    - Reduce the broadcast domains, in the same way that a switch creates a separate collision domain for each device plugged into it. A VLAN reduces the ARP broadcasts sent out.

    Really nice tutorial. Nicely explained at every step.

    Would be good if you continue and expand on more about trunking :) Look forward to reading it.
