3 Configuring the Switch

Community VLAN – A community VLAN conveys traffic between community ports, and from community ports to their designated promiscuous ports. Set PVLAN Port Type to “Host,” and then specify the associated Community VLAN.

Isolated VLAN – Conveys traffic only between the VLAN’s isolated ports and the promiscuous port. Traffic between isolated ports within the VLAN is blocked. Set the PVLAN Port Type to “Host,” then specify an isolated VLAN by marking the check box for an “Isolated VLAN,” and selecting the required VLAN from the drop-down box.

Web – Click VLAN, Private VLAN, Port Configuration or Trunk Configuration. Set the PVLAN Port Type for each port that will join a private VLAN. Assign promiscuous ports to a primary or isolated VLAN. Assign host ports to a community or isolated VLAN. After all the ports have been configured, click Apply.

Figure 3-71 Private VLAN Port Configuration

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.
