There should be no user traffic on the default/management vlan

This vlan propagate everywhere and is not prune.

Greetings,

I don't know of any advantages (if someone does please share) of moving all
users to a non-default VLAN, but there may be an advantage to putting
different user groups onto different VLANs.

Example, putting Development and HR onto different VLANs essentially puts
them on seperate networks and prevents them from seeing each other. This is
a definate plus for security.
