Private VLAN Interface Fields

Field Description
Interface The interface associated with the rest of the data in the row. When editing interface settings, this field identifies the interface being configured.
Mode The private VLAN mode of the interface, which is one of the following:
  • General: The interface is in general mode and is not a member of a private VLAN.
  • Promiscuous: The interface belongs to a primary VLAN and can communicate with all interfaces in the private VLAN, including other promiscuous ports, community ports, and isolated ports.
  • Host: The interface belongs to a secondary VLAN and, depending upon the type of secondary VLAN, can either communicate with other ports in the same community (if the secondary VLAN is a community VLAN) and with the promiscuous ports or is able to communicate only with the promiscuous ports (if the secondary VLAN is an isolated VLAN).
Host Primary VLAN The primary private VLAN the port is a member of when it is configured to operate in Host mode.
Host Secondary VLAN The secondary private VLAN the port is a member of when it is configured to operate in Host mode. The secondary private VLAN is either an isolated or community VLAN.
Promiscuous Primary VLAN The primary private VLAN in which the port is a member when it is configured to operate in Promiscuous mode.
Promiscuous Secondary VLAN The secondary private VLAN the port is a member of when it is configured to operate in Promiscuous mode. The secondary private VLAN is either an isolated or community VLAN.
Operational Private VLAN The primary and secondary operational private VLANs for the interface. The VLANs that are operational depend on the configured mode for the interface and the private VLAN type.
