-Create an interface per VLAN.
+<WRAP info>
+The approach taken here is to match the third octet of each interface IP address to the corresponding VLAN tag.
+This just makes it easier to remember:
+  * VLAN tag **50** => 192.168.**50**.0.
+  * VLAN tag **70** => 192.168.**70**.0.
+  * VLAN tag **99** => 192.168.**99**.0.
