Port Isolation
Port Isolation provides a method that isolates ports on layer 2 switches on the same VLAN to restrict
traffic flow.
Port isolation is a technique in computer networking where a VLAN contains switch ports that are
restricted such that they can only communicate with a given "uplink". The restricted ports are called
"private ports". Each private VLAN typically contains many private ports, and a single uplink. The
uplink will typically be a port (or link aggregation group) connected to a router, firewall, server,
This page is used for enabling or disabling port isolation on ports in a Private VLAN.A port member of
a VLAN can be isolated to other isolated ports on the same VLAN and Private VLAN.
