A VLAN is a virtual local area network. It is a cluster of different computers that are intended for technical purposes. These different computers are located in different areas, but they all serve on the same LAN even though they are located in different areas. An LAN is a local area network which is used for the computers in a place to communicate with other computers located usually in a close area.

In networking, a trunk is the access between two points. This allows for communication between the two computers. Sometimes there is a range of VLANs that are allowed. This can be set to a default value. However, all VLANs are allowed across the trunk even when the range of allowed VLANs is set to the default value.
