I can't understand when a router is needed through switches for VLANS ...
1) In one switch if I create some VLANS , I create both collision and broadcast domains per segments , without a router attached ?
2) I only need a router when more than one switch are connected using VLANS ?

hi AkuMa
Router does the job of forwading inter Vlan traffic. It only comes into the picture when traffic is being forwaded between 2 switches.
i hope i am correct.
thanx

I haven't gotten to the switching and VLAN parts for the CCNA TechNotes, but maybe this one from Net+ might clear up the basic idea:
