You don't need cisco, most (but not all) managed switches can do
vlans. Linksys has one with the features, but they can't manage to
get working firmware for it. (The old release crashes, the new one
makes some ports not work.) SMCs work fine, but are a pain to
configure. (To move a port from one vlan to another means 7 changes
in the configuration.)
