# Configuring VLAN

A Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) is a group of devices on one or more LANs that are configured to communicate as if they were attached to the same wire, when in fact they are located on a number of different LAN segments. Because VLANs are based on logical instead of physical connections, they are extremely flexible.

VLANs define broadcast domains in a Layer 2 network. A broadcast domain is the set of all devices that will receive broadcast frames originating from any device within the set. Broadcast domains are typically bounded by routers because routers do not forward broadcast frames. Layer 2 switches create broadcast domains based on the configuration of the switch. Switches are multiport bridges that allow you to create multiple broadcast domains. Each broadcast domain is like a distinct virtual bridge within a switch.

#### **To Configure VLAN:**

1. Navigate to **Admin** from Workspace and **click > Infrastructure > VLAN**. The **VLAN CONFIGURATION** page is displayed.

1. On the **VLAN CONFIGURATION** page, fill in the required details, and then, click **SUBMIT.** The VLAN is added and displayed in the **LIST** section below. For more information about the fields on the **VLAN CONFIGURATION** page, see Field Description.

Note:

- The Agent connects to Proxy based on client IP. If you map an IP to the proxy, and the primary and secondary url in the subnet range are specified, the Proxy Server directs the agent to connect to its nearest proxy server.
- To access the current location of the proxy IP address, enable **Change Asset Agent Proxy Server** job in the **CUSTOM SCHEDULER** page. For more information on how to configure jobs in the **CUSTOM SCHEDULER** page, see [Configuring Custom Scheduler](/apex/docs/custom-scheduler).

##### Field Description

The following table describes the fields on the **VLAN CONFIGURATION** page:
