Network Virtual LANs (VLANs), Explained Simply (VLANs, Part 1)

Where did you get the shirt?

This was amazing thank you

Hi, so i have a question or questions-
So if i have 3 managed switches, 1 router, 12 Access Points...and 1 Broadband Circuit.
12 Apartments so 1 AP in each Apartment,
I dont want the apartments to see each other on the network, so i assume 1vlan for each Apartment,

Is this all handled by the Switches or does the router need to be able to assign 12vlans as well...
Thanks...

Would if you needed to send audio from the mixer to both the stage box and PC1?

I like this explanation. It's going to take a couple of more times watching but my brain didn't melt the first time lol.

The most audio thing you did - gaffer taping the 2 switches together - love it. You really helped me understand the trunking side too, thanks

Love the way you explained it. This will help a lot of people . Good Job

thank you so much, this is the first time i understand tagged and untagged usage

We lost ethernet connection at my church but we have wifi. What was weird is the ethernet cable going to the switch and then ethernet to the EEVO wireless works fine, but plug a computer in and there is no DHCP server, or there is a problem there. It was frustrating yesterday to say the least. We have 240Mbps up wirelessly so getting the livestream out was not an issue, but as a tech guy for a small church networking is a weak spot I need to beef up. We tried an iMac, a Macbook Pro, and a Dell Windows laptop. Cables are fine, just could not get ethernet to connect. We had a wind storm last week and the power blinked 5 or 6 times...not sure if that could do it, or has anything to do with it, but it was fine before. Power cycled everything, and checked all cables too. If we turned Wifi off on any machine there was no internet...so later today will be fun. lol

How does switch 2 get access to the internet?

Great job explaining Vlans. Simple and effective method with clear talk through.
Keep up the good work!

Is it assume that all traffic is IP traffic? I haven't HDMI over CAT5 network that I'm told is not supposed to coexist with IP traffic. Can i put that on the same switch?

"Simple is the best!"

i dont get it sir.

edit: just figured it out , it makes sense to me now XD, so what it does is to change packets coming from switch 1 VLAN 1,
untagged it, then bringing untagged and tagged 2,3 traffics to switch 2, untagged packets will be tagged as vlan 4 to communicate other vlan 4 hosts and tagged 2,3 traffic will communicate with vlan 2,3 hosts in switch 2.

correct me if I got it wrong.

i need to watch repeatly to understand it better , and it's one of the best and simple explanation video

👍👍

This is a great video! I think I may have to watch it several times so that it sinks in, but it’s the best I’ve seen so far. Beyond the paper, I think that real world examples with actual devices would be great!

If you don’t mind, I would like to clarify something. Sorry if this sounds harsh. Ports configured to be on the same VLAN do not ‘talk to each other.’ I know what he is saying, but a more accurate and better way to say it is: ‘Traffic entering these ports can be forwarded out of these ports.’

Thanks!
