VLAN CONFIGURATION

2.Use the Private VLAN Association menu (page 3-164)to map the secondary (i.e., community) VLAN(s) to the primary VLAN.

3.Use the Private VLAN Port Configuration menu (page 3-166)to set the port type to promiscuous (i.e., having access to all ports in the primary VLAN), or host (i.e., having access restricted to community VLAN members, and channeling all other traffic through promiscuous ports). Then assign any promiscuous ports to a primary VLAN and any host ports a community VLAN.

To configure an isolated VLAN, follow these steps:

1.Use the Private VLAN Configuration menu (page 3-163)to designate an isolated VLAN that will channel all traffic through a single promiscuous port.

2.Use the Private VLAN Port Configuration menu (page 3-166)to set the port type to promiscuous (i.e., the single channel to the external network), or isolated (i.e., having access only to the promiscuous port in its own VLAN). Then assign the promiscuous port and all host ports to an isolated VLAN.
