How To Setup VLANs Pt1

In the video below, we show you how to setup VLANs


There is a lot to cover so we have split this into two videos

In this, the first part, we provide a background on managed and unmanaged switches and how by default even a managed switch is not a good security choice

We then explain how a managed switch can be used to separate devices into different VLANs by creating VLANs and assigning different devices to different VLANs

This is allows you to follow least privilege and isolate your computers from one another in order to make your network and computers more secure

Hardware Mentions:
Netgear GS110TPv3 8x1Gig POE Switch

US: MicroTik CRS326-24G-2S+RM 24x1Gig & 2x10Gig Switch
UK: MicroTik CSS326-24G-2S+RM 24x1Gig & 2x10Gig Switch

NOTE: Amazon US only seems to offer the RouterOS switch model
