CLI – This example shows the switch configured with primary VLAN 5 
and community VLAN 6. Port 3 has been configured as a promiscuous 
port and mapped to VLAN 5, while ports 4 and 5 have been configured as 
host ports and associated with VLAN 6. This means that traffic for port 4 
and 5 can only pass through port 3.

Use the Private VLAN Port Configuration and Private VLAN Trunk 
Configuration menus to set the private VLAN interface type, and associate 
the interfaces with a private VLAN.

•

Port/Trunk – The switch interface.

•

PVLAN Port Type – Sets the private VLAN port types.
- Normal – The port is not configured into a private VLAN.
- Host – The port is a community port or an isolated port. A 

community port can communicate with other ports in its own 
community VLAN and with the designated promiscuous port(s). An 
isolated port can only communicate with the designated 
promiscuous port(s); it cannot communicate with other hosts in its 
own isolated VLAN.

- Promiscuous – A promiscuous port can communicate with all 

interfaces within a private VLAN.

•

Primary VLAN – Conveys traffic between promiscuous ports, and 
between promiscuous ports and community ports within the 
associated secondary VLANs. If PVLAN type is “Promiscuous,” then
