User Guidelines

Private VLAN Edge (PVE) supports private communication by isolating PVE-defined ports and ensuring that all Unicast, Broadcast and Multicast traffic from these ports is only forwarded to uplink port(s).

PVE requires only one VLAN on each device, but not on every port; this reduces the number of VLANs required by the device. Private VLANs and the default VLAN function simultaneously in the same device.

Example

This example configures ethernet port 8 as a protected port, so that all traffic is sent to its uplink (ethernet port 1).

Console(config)# interface ethernet ext.1

Console(config-if)#switchport forbidden vlan add 234-256

Console(config-if)# exit

Console(config)# interface ethernet ext.1

Console(config-if)#switchport protected ethernet ext.1
