Configuring Private VLANs
This chapter describes how to configure private VLANs on the Catalyst 3750- or 3560-X switch. Unless
otherwise noted, the term
switch refers to a Catalyst 3750-X or 3560-X standalone switch and to a
Catalyst 3750-X switch stack.
Note Private VLANs are not supported on switches running the LAN base feature set.
For complete syntax and usage information for the commands used in this chapter, see the command
reference for this release.
The chapter consists of these sections:
• Understanding Private VLANs, page 1-1
•
Configuring Private VLANs, page 1-6
• Monitoring Private VLANs, page 1-15
Note When you configure private VLANs on switches running VTP, the switch must be in VTP transparent
mode. See
Chapter 1, “Configuring VTP.”
Understanding Private VLANs
The private-VLAN feature addresses two problems that service providers face when using VLANs:
•
Scalability: When running the IP base or IP services feature set, the switch supports up to 1005
active VLANs. If a service provider assigns one VLAN per customer, this limits the numbers of
customers the service provider can support.
• To enable IP routing, each VLAN is assigned a subnet address space or a block of addresses, which
can result in wasting the unused IP addresses, and cause IP address management problems.
Using private VLANs addresses the scalability problem and provides IP address management benefits
for service providers and Layer 2 security for customers. Private VLANs partition a regular VLAN
domain into subdomains. A subdomain is represented by a pair of VLANs: a
primary VLAN and a
secondary VLAN. A private VLAN can have multiple VLAN pairs, one pair for each subdomain. All
VLAN pairs in a private VLAN share the same primary VLAN. The secondary VLAN ID differentiates
one subdomain from another. See
Figure 1-1 .
