    Post lab

    Question 1

    VLAN is built as an alternate solution for routers

    VLAN is a custom network which is created by combining two or more LAN together. The advantage of
    this is the ability to combine two or more networks together and consider it as a single network which is
    also very similar to the routers task in the network. It is virtual and it is treated like a physical network
    which is used in day to day networking.

    There are three types of VLAN available and they are port based, the protocol based and the MAC based.

    VLAN divides subnets in the network but do not have the capability to send packets through the
    subnetted sections whereas the routers can access any network through the routing methods, protocols in
    the router in order to send packets. VLAN can be assumed to have routing properties upto some extent
    when broadcasting is taken into account.

    When transferring data, routers take more time with compared to VLAN to switch through networks
    Therefore the traffic increases in the whole network, then by using the VLAN the traffic can be
    minimized. By this broadcasting domain within the LAN can be subnetted to various broadcasting
    domains without using routers simply by the bridging softwares.

    Question 2
    Advantages of VLAN when comparing with LAN

     Virtual workgroup than LAN


     The performance
     Simplicity
     Cost reduction
     Sercurity

     Virtual workgroup than LAN

    The companies that have several branches named management, financial, development teams can work
    together using VLAN with a given amount of time in the same workspace or the building. It is faster than
    LAN and it will provide the broadcasting among all the parties in the building making the work easier.

    Easier than the teams getting along closer together to perform work.

     The performance

    The networks are having high broadcast traffic, via VLAN the unneccesary traffic among the devices are
    reduced and will reduce the data traffic on the network itself.

    When routers are used for different LAN, high data traffic builds up in the routers by creating VLAN
    subnetted broadcasting, the data traffic is reduced since the subnetted is done through the switches.

     Simplicity

    When a new user arrives the recabling, moving the devices in the LAN is necessary but with VLAN all
    the workload is reduced and the new user has to be added into the network by the administration then the
    routing updates are not necessary here.

     Cost reduction

    The routers and wiring expensive cables are not necessary when using these VLAN strategies in the
    network.

     Sercurity

    VLAN is highly secured and can be used by the managers appointed. The other users are not allowed to
    access the privacy of the VLAN therefore this is highly protective when compared to LAN.
