Back to the top ### IP Addresses for VLAN Interfaces A VLAN interface is a logical interface on the switch that is associated with one VLAN. VLANs allow you to group your network users and resources by function, team, or application. If the switch is operating as a DHCP server, the devices in a VLAN receive IP addresses from the DHCP IP address pool in the same subnet as the VLAN IP address. For more information about VLANs, see the VLANs window. For more information about DHCP, see the DHCP window. Back to the top ### Assign an IP Address to a VLAN Interface

Make sure that the IP address that you assign to the VLAN interface is not being used by another device in your network.
