Creating a isolated sub network

Hi all,

I have a vintage Windows XP computer (used just for fun) and soon to be my daily driver Windows 7 PC that I have used for over 10 years that the Windows OS’s are no longer “secure” or will be supported.

 

I would like to create an isolated sub network for these PC’s. Preferably a network that I could access the PC’s via my Windows 10 computers, but the vintage computers could not access the internet or be accessed through the internet.

 

In an ideal world, I would like to be able to push documents to and from my Windows 10 computers and these vintage computers, but I am not sure how to go about creating such a sub network.

 

Any thoughts?

 

 

 

 

Thanks!

 

Chris R.

If your router can support multiple VLAN:
