Broadcast Segmentation
Broadcast Segmentation can isolate layer 2 broadcast domains between ports, while keeping IP traffic forwarded between ports.
This feature is particularly useful in an Ethernet-to-the-Home environment where broadcasts need to be blocked between each
house-hold, while allowing IP communication between them. This method of segmenting the flow of traffic is similar to cross-
VLAN routing, but can save the number of IP addresses used for configuring IP interfaces/subnets per VLAN.
