VLANInterfaces
VLANInterfaces are logical network interfaces associated with a specific Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN). They provide Layer 3 reachability within the VLAN and frequently serve as gateways for devices in that VLAN, enabling routing to other networks or VLANs.

In virtualization and cloud environments, VLANInterfaces can also be represented by virtual NICs bound to a VLAN ID.
Key characteristics include the association with a single VLAN ID, the ability to assign an IP address
Configuration typically involves creating or enabling the VLAN, creating or selecting the corresponding VLANInterface, assigning an
Common use cases involve providing a gateway for hosts in each VLAN, enabling inter-VLAN routing, and offering
