Hi, I am starting my CCENT/CCNA track and I have a couple questions regarding VLANs that I can't get my head around:
1. Why do you assign an IP address to a VLAN? Is it just for management purposes?
2. If I have 2 Cisco Switches and create VLAN 10 on both Switches manually what happens if I want to assign an IP address to VLAN10..?
Would you use the same IP address say 192.168.10.10/24 and go to each switch and and assign this IP to VLAN 10 on both switches?
Many thanks for your help
