Traffic Segmentation
Traffic Segmentation
If tighter security is required for passing traffic from different clients through
downlink ports on the local network and over uplink ports to the service provider,
port-based traffic segmentation can be used to isolate traffic for individual clients.
Data traffic on downlink ports is only forwarded to, and from, uplink ports.
Traffic belonging to each client is isolated to the allocated downlink ports. But the
switch can be configured to either iso
late traffic passing across a client’s allocated
uplink ports from the uplink ports assigned to other clients, or to forward traffic
through the uplink ports used by other clients, allowing different clients to share
access to their uplink ports where security is less likely to be compromised.
Enabling Traffic
Segmentation
Use the Interface > Traffic Segmentation (Configure Global) page to enable traffic
segmentation.
Parameters
These parameters are displayed:
◆
Status – Enables port-based traffic segmentation. (Default: Disabled)
◆ Uplink-to-Uplink Mode – Specifies whether or not traffic can be forwarded
between uplink ports assigned to different client sessions.
■
Blocking – Blocks traffic between uplink ports assigned to different
sessions.
■
Forwarding – Forwards traffic between uplink ports assigned to different
sessions.
