The Marvell VLAN Virtual Adapter is a virtual network adapter that typically appears when using Virtual LAN (VLAN) features or network virtualization technologies. VLANs are used to partition a physical network into multiple virtual networks, providing enhanced control over network traffic, security, and segmentation. The Marvell VLAN Virtual Adapter is typically associated with Marvell network interfaces (NICs) and is used for managing virtualized network traffic in a networked environment.

If you see the Marvell VLAN Virtual Adapter in Device Manager or as part of your network interfaces, it is usually related to a configuration that uses VLAN tagging or other advanced network features, often in enterprise or virtualized environments.
