Hi Geeks,

I am bit new to VLAN. I want my two computers communicate through VLAN. I have following queries. As I am new to it my queries may be somewhat vague in some points. But i would like to hear from experts for my basic queries.

I have two PCs Computer A and Computer B in two different IP networks Network A and Network B Both my PC has windows OS installed.

  1. How to send a VLAN(#Number) tagged packet from Computer A to Computer B and how to detect and untag the packet at Computer B? (Please provide the steps for windows OS)
  2. For this action do I need to check if my ethernet card supports VLAN tagging/untagging? If yes how can I know if my card supports it or not?
  3. Is the VLAN applied for Wireless ethernet controllers also?
  4. Do I need any switch or router for this action?

Experts please given your inputs so that I can have a strong basic. If anyone can give some inputs how i can detect those VLAN in wireshirk, it will be helpful me also.

Thanks in advance.
