switchport mode private-vlan {host promiscuous} no switchport mode private-vlan

host – This port type can subsequently be assigned to a community or isolated VLAN.

promiscuous – This port type can communicate with all other promiscuous ports in the same primary VLAN, as well as with all the ports in the associated secondary VLANs.

Default Setting

Normal VLAN

Command Mode

Interface Configuration (Ethernet, Port Channel)

Command Usage

To assign a promiscuous port to a primary VLAN, use the switchport private-vlan mapping command. To assign a host port to a community VLAN, use the private-vlan host association command.

To assign a promiscuous port or host port to an isolated VLAN, use the switchport private-vlan isolated command.

Example

Console(config)#interface ethernet 1/2 Console(config-if)#switchport mode private-vlan promiscuous Console(config-if)#exit

Console(config)#interface ethernet 1/3 Console(config-if)#switchport mode private-vlan host Console(config-if)#

switchport private-vlan host-association
