Introduction
This TP aims to discover a method to configure a network in Grid'5000 using KaVLAN.
KaVLAN is a tool on Grid'5000 which allow to the user to manage VLANs in the platform. It edits switch configuration to change the VLAN number of the port corresponding to the interface of a node. This method permits complete layer 2 isolation.
Three kinds of VLANs are available on Grid'5000, you can find more information on the page KaVLAN. In this TP, we will use only global Vlan and local Vlan.
In the first time, we will set up a simple topologie with 2 VLANs, a global and a local. In each VLAN there will be at least one node, and one interface of a node with 2 interfaces.
