VLAN C
ONFIGURATION
3-167
- Host – The port is a community port or an isolated port. A
community port can communicate with other ports in its own
community VLAN and with designated promiscuous port(s). An
isolated port can only communicate with the single designated
promiscuous port in the isolated VLAN; it cannot communicate
with any other host ports.
- Promiscuous – A promiscuous port can communicate with all
interfaces within a private VLAN.
• Primary VLAN – Conveys traffic between promiscuous ports, and
between promiscuous ports and community ports within the
associated secondary VLANs. If PVLAN type is “Promiscuous,” then
specify the associated primary VLAN.
• 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.
