Explanation

A VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) allows network administrators to partition a single physical network into multiple logical networks. Devices on different VLANs cannot communicate directly even though they share the same physical switches and cabling. WLAN refers to wireless networking. VPN creates an encrypted tunnel between endpoints but does not segregate local network segments. MAN (Metropolitan Area Network) is a geographic network type spanning a city, not a segmentation technology.
