Configuring Port Isolation on the Switch
Steps for Configuring Port Isolation
1. Remove all non-default VLANs from the switch and ensure that all ports are untagged members
of the default VLAN (VID = 1).
2. Identify the devices you will connect to the switch’s ports.
3. Configure all equipment you plan to attach to the switch (such as servers and other switches)
to eliminate VLAN tagging on ports connected to the Series 2500 switch(es) on which you are
using Port Isolation.
4. Determine the mode assignment you want for each port on the switch. (When you enable port-
isolation, the switch configures all ports to the default Uplink mode.)
5. Remove port trunks you have configured from ports that you plan to configure in public, local,
or private mode.
6. Disable LACP on all ports that you plan to configure in public, local, or private mode. To do so,
use this command: no interface e < port-list > lacp.
7. Enable port isolation on the switch.
8. Configure the non-default port-isolation mode for each port that you do not want to operate in
the Uplink mode.
9. Connect the switch ports to the other devices in your port-isolation plan.
10. Test the operation of all ports you are using for links to the other devices.
11. When you are satisfied that your port-isolation configuration is working properly, execute write
mem to store the configuration in the startup-config file.
