Creating VLANs to separate home-lab, guest, and personal networks

Setting up VLANs

I am working on setting up my Cisco 2900 series router and switches to support 3 VLANs within my home network. I have had to first find how to wipe the router I have because I got it from a company I used to work for when we were upgrading to Meraki. Side note I love Meraki so much more. But in order to wipe the router I needed to pull out the flash ROM, Boot the router, once in Rommon mode I could then reinsert the compact flash and reset the password to the router and wipe out the old existing network setup so that I can configure it from scratch. I will leave a link to the documentation that I found for this! Cisco Password Reset Documentation Cisco Reset to default Configuration Currently I am trying to find documentation on how to setup Vlans and any prerequisite setup I may be missing. More to come as I work through this!
