VLAN programming

What I want to accomplish with my WS-8-150-AC is: I want ports 1, 3, 5 & 7 assigned to WAN traffic only, and ports 2, 4, 6 & 8 to be assigned to LAN traffic only. I assume VLANs can be used, but I have no clue how to set them up to accomplish this. Will you please give me complete step by step instructions? Thank you.

There is not enough information here to suggest a setup.
It would be easy to simply divide the switch into 2 logical switches with 2 VLANs but something tells me this is not the full story or your goal.
Could you make a diagram with say MS Paint and provide more details, a lot more details.

Yes, you phrased it much better. My goal is to divide the switch into two logical switches. So that ports 1, 3, 5 & 7 pass all of their traffic to each other only, and ports 2, 4, 6 & 8 pass all of their traffic to each other only. In an attempt to additionally clarify, ports 1, 3, 5 & 7 cannot communicate with ports 2, 4, 6 & 8, and versa.

Then Fine below is an 8 port switch broken into 2 logical switches
Ports 1,3,5,7 one logical switch
Ports 2,4,6,8 another logical switch
Ports 1,3,5,7 can not talk to 2,4,6,8
Catch 22: You can only access the switch UI/CLI on Ports 1,3,5,7 as they are the only ports present in the Management VLAN 1
