Port isolation configuration

Introduction to port isolation

Port isolation enables isolating Layer 2 traffic for data privacy and security without using VLANs. You can

also use this feature to isolate the hosts in a VLAN from one another.
To use the feature, you assign ports to a port isolation group. Ports in an isolation group are called

“isolated ports.” One isolated port cannot forward Layer 2 traffic to any other isolated port on the same
switch, even if they are in the same VLAN. Still, an isolated port can communicate with any port outside

the isolation group if they are in the same VLAN.
The switch series supports only one isolation group: “isolation group 1.” This isolation group is

automatically created and cannot be deleted. There is no limit on the number of member ports.

Assigning a port to the isolation group

Follow these steps to add a port to the isolation group:

In Ethernet interface view, the subsequent
configurations apply to the current port.

In Layer 2 aggregate interface view, the
subsequent configurations apply to the

Layer 2 aggregate interface and all its

member ports.

In port group view, the subsequent
configurations apply to all ports in the port

group.

Assign the port or ports to the
isolation group as an isolated port
