5.21.6 Configuring Private VLANs
Private VLANs provide port-based security and isolation between ports within the assigned VLAN. This switch supports two
types of private VLANs: primary/ secondary associated groups, and stand-alone isolated VLANs. A primary VLAN contains
promiscuous ports that can communicate with all other ports in the private VLAN group, while a secondary (or community)
VLAN contains community ports that can only communicate with other hosts within the secondary VLAN and with any of the
promiscuous ports in the associated primary VLAN. Isolated VLANs, on the other hand, consist a single stand-alone VLAN that
contains one promiscuous port and one or more isolated (or host) ports. In all cases, the promiscuous ports are designed to
provide open access to an external network such as the Internet, while the community or isolated ports provide restricted
access to local users.
Multiple primary VLANs can be configured on this switch, and multiple community VLANs can be associated with each primary
VLAN. One or more isolated VLANs can also be configured. (Note that private VLANs and normal VLANs can exist
simultaneously within the same switch.)
This section describes commands used to configure private VLANs.

Table 5-72 Private VLAN Commands
To configure primary/secondary associated groups, follow these steps:
1. Use the private-vlan command to designate one or more community VLANs and the primary VLAN that will channel traffic
outside of the community groups.
2. Use the private-vlan association command to map the community VLAN(s) to the primary VLAN.
3. Use the switchport mode private-vlan command to configure ports as promiscuous (i.e., having access to all ports in the
primary VLAN) or host (i.e., community port).
4. Use the switchport private-vlan host-association command to assign a port to a secondary VLAN.
5. Use the switchport private-vlan mapping command to assign a port to a primary VLAN.
6. Use the show private-vlan command to verify your configuration settings.
