VLAN CONFIGURATION

VLAN, and with their designated promiscuous ports. (Note that private VLANs and normal VLANs can exist simultaneously within the same switch.)

Each private VLAN consists of two components: a primary VLAN and one or more community VLANs. A primary VLAN allows traffic to pass between promiscuous ports, and between promiscuous ports and community ports subordinate to the primary VLAN. A community VLAN conveys traffic between community ports, and from the community ports to their associated promiscuous ports. Multiple primary VLANs can be configured on this switch, and multiple community VLANs can be configured within each primary VLAN.

To configure private VLANs, follow these steps:

1.Use the Private VLAN Configuration menu (page 3-197)to designate one or more community VLANs and the primary VLAN that will channel traffic outside of the community groups.

2.Use the Private VLAN Association menu (page 3-198)to map the secondary (i.e., community) VLAN(s) to the primary VLAN.

3.Use the Private VLAN Port Configuration menu (page 3-200)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 a promiscuous port). Then assign any promiscuous ports to a primary VLAN and any host ports a secondary VLAN (i.e., community VLAN).
