PVLAN

A private VLAN (PVLAN) contains switch ports that cannot communicate with each other
on a switch but can access a shared domain. These ports are called private ports. Each
private VLAN contains one or more private ports, and a single uplink port or uplink
aggregation group.

The PVLAN function should be configured as follows:

In the shared domain VLAN, add the ports so that the private ports are set as
tagged and the ports within the shared domain are set as untagged.

In the isolated domain VLANs, group the private ports as untagged members with
only the shared ports tagged, (do not include the ports from the other private
VLAN).

Add all the VLANs to the PVLAN.

Example:

Fig 3-21 PVLAN

In the example in Fig 3-21 ports 3, 4, 5 & 6 are private ports grouped as VLAN2 and
VLAN3 and VLAN1 is the shared domain. VLAN1 must to be able to communicate with
VLAN2 and VLAN3 however; VLAN 2 & VLAN 3 must not be able to communicate with
each other.

VLAN1

port 1 = untagged

port 3 = tagged

port 2 = untagged

port 4 = tagged

port 5 = tagged

port 6 = tagged


VLAN2

port 3 = untagged

port 1 = tagged

port 4 = untagged

port 2 = tagged


VLAN3

port 5 = untagged

port 1 = tagged

Port 6 = untagged

port 2 = tagged


The VLANs must then be added to the PVLAN.
