VLAN
Virtual LAN. A group of hosts with a
common set of requirements that commu-
nicate as if they were attached to the same
wire, regardless of their physical location.
Although a VLAN has the same attributes
as a physical LAN, it allows for end
stations to be grouped together even if
they are not located on the same LAN
segment. VLANs enable network reconfig-
uration through software, instead of physi-
cally relocating devices.
