Guest VLAN Definition: Guest VLAN segregates guest devices from the rest of the network to provide limited access and security controls to external users or devices.
A Guest VLAN is a separate virtual local area network (VLAN) that is created to provide network connectivity to guest users, such as visitors or temporary users. It is designed to restrict access to resources on the main network and isolate guest traffic for security purposes, preventing unauthorized access to sensitive data and systems. Guest VLANs are commonly used in organizations to segregate guest traffic from internal network traffic, helping to enhance network security and minimize potential risks associated with external users accessing the network.
