Problem is, you can't just say VLAN and have it illuminate the issue.
You have to know the vlan classification.
Tagged or untagged to workstation?
Subnet vlans, protocol vlans or management vlans?
If the vlan is just a subnet vlan for broadcast containment on a
switch/router then it should be transparent untagged IP to the worstation.
