A: TRUE
B: FALSE
Correct Answer:
T; R; U; E
Explanation

The statement is correct. In campus network design, VLANs (Virtual Local Area Networks) are a fundamental tool for logical network segmentation. A common and effective strategy for VLAN planning is to assign them based on service types. This involves creating separate VLANs for different kinds of traffic, such as a voice VLAN for VoIP phones, a data VLAN for user workstations, a management VLAN for network devices, and a guest VLAN for visitor access. This approach enhances security by isolating traffic, improves performance by controlling broadcast domains, and simplifies network management and the application of Quality of Service (QoS) policies.

Why Incorrect

This is a "True or False" question; therefore, there is no incorrect option to analyze.
