Hi,
This switch does support vlans.  They are very easy to setup.  Follow
these steps to create a vlan named foo with and id of 500 and add a
port to the vlan.
To show the existing vlan config do a 
switch# show vlan brief
To create a vlan do a
switch#configure terminal
switch(config)#vlan 500
switch(config-vlan)#name foo
switch(config-vlan)#interface fastethernet 0/5
switch(config-if)#switchport mode access vlan 500
switch(config-if)#end
switch#show vlan brief
This should show something like 
VLAN Name                             Status    Ports
---- -------------------------------- --------- -------------------------------
500  foo                              active    Fa0/5
1002 fddi-default                     active
1003 token-ring-default               active
1004 fddinet-default                  active
1005 trnet-default                    active

(**note that I have omitted some vlans from my exampler**)

Then to add more ports to the vlan just repeat the commands, Just
substitute the 0/5 for whatever port you want to add to the vlan
switch#configure terminal
switch(config-vlan)#interface fastethernet 0/5
switch(config-if)#switchport mode access vlan 500
switch(config-if)#end

Hope this helps,
-Jimmy
