_______ VLAN is used for management, SNMP, and Syslog.

• A. Voice
• B. Data
• C. Management
• D. Guest

Answer: (C)

A management VLAN is used to isolate and carry network management traffic, including admin access, SNMP, and Syslog. Keeping management traffic on its own VLAN provides a secure and reliable path for device administration, separate from regular user data. It helps ensure that monitoring and logging messages reach the management systems even if user traffic is heavy or the network is under stress, and it makes it easier to apply strict access controls to who can reach these management interfaces. The other VLANs serve different purposes: a voice VLAN handles VoIP traffic to ensure call quality, a data VLAN carries typical user data, and a guest VLAN provides restricted access for visitors. For management, SNMP, and Syslog, the dedicated management VLAN is the appropriate choice.
