Author VLAN / Routing question

In order to communicate between VLANS, a router is needed. Does this
mean that a VLAN can only exist within a specific network address ?

For example, if I have VLAN-1 on network address 192.168.1.0/24, and I want
to create a VLAN-2, does this mean that this VLAN-2 can only exist on a
totally separate network (for example 192.168.2.0/24) ?

Hi Patrick

It sure does. Each VLAN uses it's own subnet.

Yup, they'd both be a "virtual LAN" completely isolated from each other
unless you set up a router.

Some of the higher end switches actually do routing between VLANs, so you
can set up inter-VLAN routing without an external router.

Thanks for your responses guys.
One further question.....based on what you've said already, would it be
impossible for VLAN-1 to have nodes on subnet 192.168.1.0/24 AND
192.168.2.0/24 ?

It wouldn't be impossible. You could use secondary addressing or use a NIC
that's VLAN-aware.

Take a look at the cisco web site for a lab called "router on a stick".

This is a lab that uses a router to allow to VLANs to send traffic to each
other.
You will need a router that has an IOS that supports ISL in order for this
to work.
