Canonical page: https://career.thegoodapps.co/skills/vlan

A VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) is a networking technology that logically segments a single physical network into multiple isolated broadcast domains. Network administrators use VLANs to improve security, reduce congestion, and organize devices by department or function without needing separate physical switches. VLANs are configured on managed switches and identified by tags defined in the IEEE 802.1Q standard.
