What is a VLAN? Virtual Local Area Networks

[@CyberWorld247]

I’ve been searching for different definitions to make me actually understand what a vlan is and its function in a network, you just solved my problem in literally 5mins😭😭

[@shrk128]

As a guy just starting CCNA7 module 2, this really helped! This guy is SPICY! Simple explanation, to the point, and simple examples!

[@NasirHazary]

I love the way you explain and how slowly you speak, not like others very fast speak up. thanks for the professional explains.

[@Malik-dw9vx]

you have explained in 6 minutes what i couldn't understand in an entire lecture. YOU ARE AMAZING !

[@godfredotchere2380]

I am amazed with how its was explained because i could understand it so simple after all this years

[@Talha-ITSupportProfessional]

But I understood it in 30 secs😅

[@spearlightknight1714]

Thank you for this explanation of VLANs! It was well articulated! Please keep more good content coming!

[@BeeCoole]

Dang, you nailed it. I hated this stuff until I started watching your videos. I have just started to learn how to program multiple vlans on switches. U r a darn good teacher.

[@nicaraguafraud1356]

Mejor explicación que he encontrado hasta ahora, thanks

[@tahersadeghi6773]

Many Thanks Jacob. Your teaching is the most relevant and clear. The Best.

[@petepeters419]

I had to go through a ton of KZbin videos with East Indians with strong accents and useless information before I found this useful, articulate, well produced presentation. Thank You! This video needs to be atop the KZbin search algorithm.

[@saidel8565]

Some people just write thousands of words articles to explain this, thank you this was really easy to understand

[@anthonynye1747]

Thank you for the simple explanation! couldn't find a video that's this good

[@BallerDan53]

Great explanation. Much easier than how my textbook explained.

[@hoangdesu]

My boring 1 and a half hour lecture has been sum up in one video. Nice!

[@akoyt748]

Best explanation i've heard for understanding the 'why' of vlans

[@75aatif]

Today i actually understood what VLans are about. I have seen several other tutorials regarding VLNAS but that has left me puzzled till i watched this video. Thanx for the wonderful explianation...Cheers :)

[@davidlira8853]

I liked how the picture of the 2 separate LANs with their own switch, merged both switches into 1 switch, while still maintaining 2 separate LANs

[@muhammad_haruna]

Thank you for the video Jacob, yes I really enjoyed it. Thank you again

Dat was d most amazing and the simplest explanation of purpose of vlan... U explained it on a real time basis...after months finally got d logic You r d best!

[@shriebrown3500]

Great explanation for a single switch implemented with VLAN. You pointed out the key point for understanding this complicated concept.

[@dan5640]

finally a clear explanation, everyone else makes it confusing!

[@JJFlores197]

I have a real world example. I work in school IT support and we have multiple networks. The 2 main networks are for staff and students. The staff devices (mainly staff laptops and iPads) automatically connect to the staff network and the student devices (mainly Chromebooks) automatically connect to the student network. The reason we have this in place is for network control. We don't want students to be able to see staff devices on the network and it also helps with our content filtering so that they can't look at school inappropriate things. It basically allows us to have granular control over the networks we run at our district.

[@ferdinardajaba2691]

Is this vlan? How do you achieve that being that Chromebook use wireless only?

[@JJFlores197]

@@ferdinardajaba2691 Yes, they are on VLANs. I don't know the full network configuration since I don't work on that side of the networks. I do know that there are VLANs for the student network and for the staff network. On your switches, you assign whichever ports you want for students and staff. On the wifi access points, you create 2 networks (students and staff) each with their own VLAN. We have a Chromebook management system that automatically connects the CBs to the student network when a student logs in and if a staff member logs into a CB, it puts them on the staff wifi network.

I like how you provided the reason VLAN was created. makes things a lot easier. I would like to see more how VLANs are implemented, how to map them, IPs, subnets, and all of that good stuff. if you have any link to this it would be very much appreciated.

I like your explanation of Vlans and the way you use examples. You could also do a follow-up video for us noobs who might be confused as to the difference between a VLAN and a subnet. since they sound very similar.

[@luigidreemurr6034]

Dam. I was going through my new router and I found this option. I was hoping that it was a bridge that could make a "virtual" LAN over the internet so I could play a few games like I was on LAN with a friend. Though I do find this equally interesting and well explained. Thank you!

[@stereotype17]

In case you never found your answer, what you're looking for is a VPN tunnel. You can use a VPN to hide your traffic, but you can also use it to connect two sites so that they act like a LAN together.

[@alexfok1648]

Good effort but VLAN main ideal is to separate broadcast , it's just that many switch vendors implemented a full separation between VLANs resulting in a full isolation between VLANs . these days we say the benefit of vlan is for security; layer 2 segmentation.That is a secondary benefit. And lastly your building diagram is incomplete, it is with the help of trunking links that VLANs in switches are extended between switches. Many years ago a company call cabletron tries to implement something call secure fast ; a porous VLAN; block broadcast but allow MC and Unicast between VLANs ( it failed ) but that is the MAIN idea of VLAN ..separate broadcast domain
