Each method is appropriate for meeting different user needs and in different network environments.
There are even situations where it is advantageous to utilize multiple methods within a single network environment.
Creating workgroups
• Access
♦ users within the same department
♦ team for short term projects
• security
♦ users may work on sensitive information which
should not be seen by other users
• traffic
♦ When there are a lot of broadcast traffic between
them
Communication between VLAN
• A VLAN cannot forward traffic to another VLAN
♦ Shared Severs between VLANs
♦ Router communicate between VLANs
• Routing between VLANs when VLANs are
defined for both ATM and non-ATM devices
Multiple ELANs are established in ATM backbone and are
assigned to different VLANs
♦ Edge routing
♦ One-armed router
♦ Route server
♦ MPOA
VLAN Management
• An additional layer of virtual connectivity
• Maintaining VLAN information can be burdensome and
time consuming
• VLAN can complicate traffic analysis
♦ optimization of server placement
♦ overall network performance.
• Policy driven VLANs draw ample management tasks.
Management Function Needed
• Automatic Configuration
• Mapping between virtual connectivity and physical
connectivity
• Ensure the configuration consistence
• Traffic analysis and control under VLAN
There is a trade off between VLAN benefits and
complexity in some areas of network management
Conclusion
• VLAN Removes the physical boundary
• A lot of benefits
• Require elaborate planning
• Management is complex
• Possible problems in interoperability
• Evolving from infrastructure VLAN to Service-
Based VLAN
• VLAN is More strategic rather than
tactical.
