Hi All, I have a problem about vlan setup. I want to know the best way of creating VLANs. I just want to separate each department in same network. i connected each department to the like HR ,Accounting, etc separately I have VLAN 1: account department. VLAN 2: finance department. VLAN3:HR department. Etc. If I separate the network via department I will have multiples vlans. I want each department separately. Thanks.

hi, I think if you have more than 2 departments and you want to connect them separately on the network, then you should put different subnet for different department. And you create the route for them also.

hey, if you want to separate different department then consider you have internal ip .account. Finance. HR/24 192.168.1.50
Then,
192. - Internal ip (could be 192, whatever you choose)
168. – account (customers etc...)
1. - finance (1 for data, 20 for VoIP, etc...)
50.-HR
/24 - because it seems easier to everyone
then route each department or route all of them.
