1. Understanding Virtual LANs

2. Agenda What Is a VLAN? How Does it Work? VLAN Technologies

3. Constraints of Shared LANs Users are physically bound Subnets are tied to hubs Users are grouped by location No security on segment Addressing is constrained Moves require address changes Router ports are expensive

4. Virtual LANs One broadcast domain within a switch VLANs help manage broadcast domain Can be defined on port groups, users, or protocols LAN switches and network management software provide a mechanism to create VLANs Server Farm VLAN 1 VLAN 2 VLAN 3

5. Remove the Physical Boundaries Group users by department, team, or application Routers provide communication between VLANs EngineeringMarketingAcctg. Floor 3 Floor 2 Floor 1

6. VLAN Benefits Reduced administrative costs Simplify moves, adds, and changes Efficient bandwidth utilization Better control of broadcasts Improved network security Separate VLAN group for high-security users Relocate servers into secured locations Scalability and performance Microsegment with scalability Distribute traffic load

7. Approaches Can Vary Performance Port-Based VLAN 1 VLAN 2 VLAN 3 Layer 3-Based Subnet 198.22.xx VLAN 1VLAN 2 Subnet 198.21.xx VLAN 2 MAC-Based VLAN 1 MAC Addresses Establishing VLAN Membership Port driven MAC address driven Network address driven Application type driven

8. Multiple VLANs per Port Broadcast Outgoing Mac 1 Mac 2 Mac 3 Mac 4 Mac 5 Mac 6 Mac 7 Mac 8 Mac 9 Mac 10 Mac 11 Mac 12 Broadcast Incoming Does This Make Sense in Switched/Shared LANs? Requested when multiple clients are attached Requires address lookups Cannot filter broadcasts on shared segment Results in lots of administration, little return Hub

9. Two Physical Topology Approaches Communicating Between VLANs Layer 3 links VLANs together Adds additional security and management Logical links conserve physical ports Multimode, depending on protocol Controls access by VLAN Up to 255 VLANs per router VLAN 2 VLAN 3 VLAN 1 Cisco Internetworking Software VLANs 1, 2, 3 Logical Communication Physical Link per VLAN

10. VLAN Technologies

11. Inter-Switch Link VLAN Tag Added at Incoming Port VLAN Tag Stripped by Forwarding Port Inter-Switch Link (ISL) Carries VLAN Identifier Interconnects multiple switches and maintains VLAN information as traffic goes between switches Establishes membership through ASICs Labels each packet as received (“packet tagging”) Eliminates lookups and tables Transports multiple VLANs across links Protocol, endstation-independent Easily managed 802.10 ISLISL 802.1Q LANE

12. Wide vendor endorsement for 802.1Q tagging standard Cisco supports across Fast Ethernet, Gigabit uplinks Cisco maps ISL to 802.1Q dynamically with VTP Packet Tagging as Common VLAN Exchange VLAN Standardization Level-1 Explicit Tagging SRC DESSRC Data DES SRC FCS FCS DESSRCFCS VLAN ID

13. 802.1Q VLAN Standard Implementation Cisco environment uses ISL Vendor environment uses an existing, yet different packet tagging method Interdomain communication based on 802.1Q standard Si Cisco Domain Vendor X Domain ISL ? Company ABC Typical Environment

14. VLAN administration and configuration protocol Reduces VLAN setup and administration Eliminates configuration errors Decreases network manager’s time adding and managing VLANs Maintains security between VLANs Virtual Trunk Protocol (VTP)
