VLAN Profile Management

VLAN profiles in Meraki provide centralized VLAN configuration templates that can be applied consistently across multiple network locations. These profiles enable standardized network segmentation by defining reusable VLAN naming schemes, ID assignments, and grouping structures. VLAN profiles streamline multi-site deployments by allowing administrators to maintain consistent network architectures while accommodating site-specific requirements through profile variations and customizations.
