If all subnets are a part of same vlan, then the network segregation using subnets does not make sense

So, does Vlan and Subnetting go hand in hand? What I meant is, if we need to use subnetting, the do we need to also make sure each subnet is part of a different vlan? In 98% of the cases, YES. You ...

Non VLAN Tagged Traffic Not Going Through Trunk Between Cisco Switches

You set the interface native (untagged) VLAN to VLAN ID 1 and then only allowed VLAN 79 on the Trunk interface so untagged packets (VLAN 1) cannot pass over it. Add VLAN 1 to the allowed VLAN list on ...

Can we have two logging source-interface configured on Cisco Switch?

No. You can have only one source interface statement. If you try to add the second, it will simply overwrite the first.

Cisco interface vlan (shutdown vs no ip address)

IPv4 is not the only layer-3 protocol. We have IPv6, and Cisco has supported others, too. You could, for example, have something like this: interface Vlan10 no ip address ipv6 address 2001:db8:1234:...

Understanding VLAN Tagging for Network Segmentation

VLAN tagging is a way to label network traffic so switches can identify which Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) a packet belongs to. It's crucial for network segmentation, improving security, and ...

Give internet access with a not VLAN enabled router to two VLAN networks

Connecting a VLAN to a device without tagging support requires a dedicated, untagged port ("access"). In reverse, a device without VLAN support can only use a single, untagged VLAN on each ...

Trying to achieve ECHO request reaching destination in other VLAN

If all subnets are a part of same vlan, then the network segregation using subnets does not make sense

if all the subnets are part of the same Vlan, does the above advantage still make sense? Not really. If there's no L2 segregation by VLANs (or separate switches) then any host can join any subnet ...

VTP transparent mode Switch does not pass user traffic to and from other VTP Switches

This has nothing to do with VTP. If Switch C only has VLAN 1, it's not going to forward other tagged traffic from one port to another.

Why is inter-VLAN communication not working in my network set-up in Cisco Packet Tracer?
