VLAN Commands 4

3.Use the switchport mode private-vlancommand to configure ports as promiscuous (i.e., having access to all ports in the primary VLAN) or host (i.e., community port).

4.Use the switchport private-vlan host-association command to assign a port to a secondary VLAN.

5.Use the switchport private-vlan mapping command to assign a port to a primary VLAN.

6.Use the show vlan private-vlancommand to verify your configuration settings.

To configure isolated VLANs, follow these steps:

1.Use the private-vlancommand to designate an isolated VLAN that will contain a single promiscuous port and one or more isolated ports.

2.Use the switchport mode private-vlancommand to configure one port as promiscuous (i.e., having access to all ports in the isolated VLAN) one or more ports as host (i.e., isolated port).

3.Use the switchport private-vlan isolated command to assign a port to an isolated VLAN.

4.Use the show vlan private-vlancommand to verify your configuration settings.

private-vlan

Use this command to create a primary, community, or isolated private VLAN. Use the no form to remove the specified private VLAN.

Syntax

private-vlan vlan-id{community primary isolated} no private-vlan vlan-id

vlan-id- ID of private VLAN. (Range: 1-4094, no leading zeroes).

community - A VLAN in which traffic is restricted to host members in the same VLAN and to promiscuous ports in the associate primary VLAN.

primary - A VLAN which can contain one or more community VLANs, and serves to channel traffic between community VLANs and other locations.

isolated – Specifies an isolated VLAN. Ports assigned to an isolated VLAN can only communicate with the promiscuous port within their own VLAN.

Default Setting

None

Command Mode

VLAN Configuration

Command Usage

Private VLANs are used to restrict traffic to ports within the same community or isolated VLAN, and channel traffic passing outside the community through promiscuous ports. When using community VLANs, they must be mapped to
