VLAN Configuration

Displaying Private VLAN Interface Information - CLI

This example shows the switch configured with primary VLAN 5 and secondary VLAN 6. Port 3 has been configured as a promiscuous port and mapped to VLAN 5, while ports 4 and 5 have been configured as a host ports and associated with VLAN 6. This means that traffic for port 4 and 5 can only pass through port 3.

Configuring Private VLAN Interfaces

Use the Private VLAN Port Configuration and Private VLAN Trunk Configuration menus to set the private VLAN interface type, and associate the interfaces with a private VLAN.

Command Attributes

Port/Trunk: The switch interface.

PVLAN Port Sets the private VLAN port types.

Type:

• Normal – The port is not configured into a private VLAN.

Host – The port is a community port and can only communicate with other ports in its own community VLAN, and with the designated promiscuous port(s).

Promiscuous – A promiscuous port can communicate with all interfaces within a private VLAN.

Primary VLAN: Conveys traffic between promiscuous ports, and between promiscuous ports and com- munity ports within the associated secondary VLANs. If PVLAN type is “Promiscuous,” then specify the associated primary VLAN. For “Host” type, the Primary VLAN displayed is the one to which the selected secondary VLAN has been associated.

• Secondary

On this switch, all secondary VLANs are community VLANs. A community VLAN con-

VLAN:

veys traffic between community ports, and from community ports to their designated pro-

 

miscuous ports. If PVLAN Port Type is “Host,” then specify the associated secondary

 

VLAN.

Configuring Private VLAN Interfaces - Web

Click Private VLAN, Private VLAN Port Configuration or Private VLAN Trunk Configuration. Set the PVLAN Port Type for each port that will join a private VLAN. For promiscuous ports, set the associated primary VLAN. For host ports, set the associated secondary VLAN. After all the ports have been configured, click Apply.

NXA-ENET24 specifications

The AMX NXA-ENET24 is a versatile and powerful networked control interface designed to meet the growing demands of modern AV systems. This network switch offers an exceptional combination of reliability, performance, and scalability, making it an ideal choice for professional environments such as conference rooms, educational facilities, and control rooms.

One of the key features of the NXA-ENET24 is its 24-port configuration, allowing for extensive connectivity options. Each port supports 10/100/1000 Mbps speeds, ensuring that high bandwidth applications are handled with ease. Additionally, the switch incorporates advanced auto-negotiation technology, which automatically configures the optimal speed and duplex mode for connected devices. This ensures seamless connectivity and minimizes the risk of network disruptions.

The NXA-ENET24 is designed with advanced management capabilities, including support for VLANs, which helps to segment network traffic for enhanced security and performance. Network administrators can easily create virtual local area networks to optimize traffic flow and reduce congestion. This feature is particularly beneficial in environments where multiple AV systems operate concurrently.

Another significant characteristic of the NXA-ENET24 is its support for Power over Ethernet, or PoE. This feature enables the switch to deliver electrical power alongside data through the network cables. As a result, devices such as IP cameras, VoIP phones, and wireless access points can be powered directly from the switch, simplifying deployment and reducing the need for additional power sources.

Monitoring and management of the switch are made easier through a user-friendly interface. The NXA-ENET24 supports SNMP for network management, allowing users to monitor performance metrics, configure settings, and receive alerts in case of issues. This level of oversight is crucial for maintaining the stability of AV systems in mission-critical applications.

Durability is another hallmark of the NXA-ENET24 design. The switch features a robust chassis that is engineered to withstand the rigors of professional use. With cooling mechanisms in place and a fanless design, the NXA-ENET24 operates quietly and efficiently, making it suitable for environments where noise is a concern.

In conclusion, the AMX NXA-ENET24 is a powerful, reliable, and feature-rich network switch that effectively supports modern AV applications. With its extensive connectivity options, advanced management capabilities, PoE support, and durable design, it is an excellent choice for integrators and organizations looking to optimize their network infrastructure.
