Provisioning VLAN services in a network patching system includes receiving a request to provide a VLAN service to an individual communication channel, determining whether a switch connector port connected to the individual communication channel via a patch cord is configured to provide the requested VLAN service, and initiating the requested VLAN service to the individual communication channel in response to determining that the switch connector port is configured to provide the requested VLAN service. Verification that a user associated with the individual communication channel is authorized to access the requested VLAN service may be performed prior to initiating the requested VLAN service. An administrator may be notified that a VLAN service has been requested and/or initiated. The user associated with the communication channel may be notified when the requested ULAN service has been initiated.
