VLAN traffic

Hi all,

I need clarifications on what egress and ingress traffic is for a vlan.

My presumption is that traffic received inbound on a switchport belonging to
the vlan is ingress, while the outbound traffic from the same port is
egress, is this correct? what if the outbound traffic is destined to a
device on the vlan? I suppose ingress traffic must be destined to devices
on the vlan?? what about egress traffic? Where and how should the traffic
direction be defined?

Can someone please shed some light on this concept.

TIA
Josef
