In the ExtremeXOS 16.1 User Guide, in VLANs > Private VLANs > PVLAN Overview > PVLAN Limitations

The following text:

“EAPS can only be configured on network VLAN ports (and not on subscriber VLAN ports). To support EAPS on the network VLAN, you must add all of the VLANs in the PVLAN to the EAPS ring.

STP can only be configured on network VLAN ports (and not on subscriber VLAN ports). To support STP on the network VLAN, you must add all of the VLANs in the PVLAN to STP.”

Needs to be changed to:

“For PVLAN with STP implementation, irrespective of port translation configuration in Network VLAN, it is recommended to add both Network VLAN and all subscriber VLANs to STP.

For PVLAN with EAPS implementation, irrespective of port translation configuration in Network VLAN, it is recommended to add both Network VLAN and all subscriber VLANs to the EAPS ring.”
