VLANs in Packet Tracer I - morgan-hanrahan/Tech-Journal GitHub Wiki

Summary

In this lab, we showed the impact of VLANs on networks, saw the distinction between logical and physical switching, used trunk and access ports, and configured a switch to support multiple VLANs.

Helpful Info

To create a VLAN on a switch, go to the switch, click the config tab, then go to VLAN Database, and then enter the VLAN number and name.

To configure an access port on a switch, go to the switch config tab, and then go down to the FastEthernet options and click access instead of trunk and then select the VLAN port you want to use.

To configure a trunk port on a switch, click the config tab on the switch, and then go down to the Gigabit/Ethernet option and click it then select trunk and the VLANs you want to use.
