Static Virtual LANs (VLANs)
Port-Based Virtual LANs (Static VLANs)
The Secure Management VLAN
Configures a secure Management VLAN by creating an isolated network for
managing the following ProCurve switches that support this feature:
• Series 2600 switches • Series 4100gl switches
• Series 2600-PWR switches • Series 4200vl switches
• Series 2610 switches • Series 5300xl switches
• Series 2610-PWR switches • Series 5400zl switches
• Series 2800 switches • Series 8200zl switches
• Series 3400cl switches • Switch 6108
Access to this VLAN, and to the switch’s management functions (Menu, CLI,
and web browser interface) is available only through ports configured as
members.
■ Multiple ports on the switch can belong to the Management VLAN. This
allows connections for multiple management stations you want to have
access to the Management VLAN, while at the same time allowing Man­
agement VLAN links between switches configured for the same Manage­
ment VLAN.
■ Only traffic from the Management VLAN can manage the switch, which
means that only the workstations and PCs connected to ports belonging
to the Management VLAN can manage and reconfigure the switch.
Figure 2-27 illustrates use of the Management VLAN feature to support man­
agement access by a group of management workstations.
