Port-based VLANs
Port-based VLANs are typically used to reduce broadcast traffic and to
increase security. A group of network users assigned to a VLAN form a
broadcast domain that is separate from other VLANs configured on the
switch. Packets are forwarded only between ports that are designated for
the same VLAN. Port-based VLANs can be used to manually isolate user
groups or subnets. However, you should use IEEE 802.3 tagged VLANs
with GVRP whenever possible to fully automate VLAN registration.
