Function name:
Isolated Group
Function description:
Isolated Group function can let the port be independent of other ports in the
Isolated group, and the communication is also forbidden between these ports.
But, the ports of the Isolated group are still able to communicate with the ports
of the non-Isolated group. With this design, it will be helpful to the
administrator to immediately find and solve the port that results in the
occurrence of looping problems in the network.
Parameter description:
Mode:
Used for the activation or de-activation of Isolated Group function.
Default is disable
Isolated Group:
User can choose any port to be the member of this group. Just tick the
check box (
;
)
beside the port x and valid port is Port 1~26. In this group,
all of these member ports cannot forward packets with each other. Thus,
the switch will not be capable of forwarding any packets in case its all
ports become the members of the Isolated group.
