As you can see in the image above, VLAN is disabled by default. To enable VLAN functionality, select either Port based or Tag based VLAN mode. Once you have selected the desired functionality, you will be able to configure it.

Port based VLAN is a method to create separate LAN networks on different LAN ports. The method is pretty simple: first you have to configure an [[#LAN_Networks|alternate LAN network]], then you have you to choose which LAN port (s) will provide addresses for that network. More detailed information is provided in the table below.

Multiple VLANs can be used through a single Ethernet port. Tags containing the respective VLAN identifiers indicating the VLAN to which the frame belongs are attached to the individual Ethernet frames.

The LAN Networks page provides you with the possibility to create alternate LAN instances that will be used with VLAN. One default instance will be already in place and it will have the configurations from your router's main LAN. Regarding other instances, you can configure everything that you could in the main [[LAN]] section, except for the fact that will not be able to use them as the main configuration for your router's LAN.

To create a new LAN instance, type in a name for it in the '''LAN name''' field and click the '''Add New''' button located next to it. After this you will see that your new instance has appeared in the '''LAN Networks list'''. To configure an instance, click the '''Edit''' button located next to it. The configuration is identical to regular [[LAN|LAN configuration]].
