Ok, so you don't have to worry about overlapping IP addresses on different 
VLANs that are not handled by nEdge as described in the guide.

Currently this is not supported for simplicity. Those features involve 
redirects and that can become cumbersome with VLANs. If you have special 
requirements, please tell us a use casa and we will consider it for 
implementation.

Assuming you are on a VLAN trunk, that is written on the readme 
(https://www.ntop.org/guides/nedge/bridging.html?highlight=vlan 
<https://www.ntop.org/guides/nedge/bridging.html?highlight=vlan>). If you have 
VLAN-interfaces on the host, there's nothing special to do. You will see them 
appearing in the nEdge UI.
