Configure PVLAN Ports
You must assign switchports a PVLAN Port role—host, promiscuous, or trunk—before you can add them
to a primary or secondary VLAN.
• Host ports may not be a part of a non-private (regular) VLAN.
• Promiscuous ports may be a member of more than one primary VLAN, but may not be a member of
a regular VLAN.
• Trunk ports may be a member of a regular VLAN.
Place PVLAN Ports in a Secondary VLAN
PVLAN has two types of secondary VLANs:
Community VLANs:
• Can only have host ports.
• Host ports can communicate with each other and to promiscuous ports.
Isolated VLANs:
• Can only have host ports.
• Host ports cannot communicate with each other; they can only communicate with promiscuous ports.
