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.
