Don't know how to setup a simple VLAN on the RVS4000

[PaulTenBrink]

I'm sure it is my lack of knowledge of networks, but even after reading the manual (!) I don't understand how I can set-up a simple VLAN on my new RVS4000.

On my good old DrayTek it's very easy: it shows me a matrix of check boxes and all I have to do is click the ones that correspond to ports that can 'see' eachother. Something like this:

               Port 1   Port 2   Port 3   Port 4

VLAN 1    x                          x

VLAN 2                      x        x

VLAN 3             x                 x

VLAN 4

So port 1-3 can all 'see' port 4 (the Internet router) but they can't 'see' eachother.

Can anyone please show me the steps to take to accomplish this? Thanks a lot in advance!

OK, I will use it as a bookstand...    

Since I obviously don't know enough about networks I will stay away from 'professional' products like the Cisco products.

The user interface and the documentation of these products are clearly made by nerds for nerds...    

Thanks for your help.
