PVLAN Configuration Example 1
PVLAN Configuration Example 1 shows a PVLAN configuration example for a medical research lab.
PVLAN Configuration Example 1
The medical research lab hosts lots of visiting clients. Each client has their own room, and the lab wants to grant them access to the internet through a local web proxy server but prevent them from accessing other visiting clients. There is a lab in the building where many research workstations are located. Workstations within the lab require access to other lab workstations, the internet, and file servers that are connected to a switch in another building. Visiting clients should not have access to the Research VLAN devices or the file servers on the remote switch.
The PVLAN in PVLAN Configuration Example 1 contains the
following PVLAN components:
- Network VLAN named Main, which provides internet access through the proxy web server and access to file servers on the remote switch.
- Isolated subscriber VLAN named ClientConnections, which provides internet access for visiting clients and isolation from other visiting clients, the Research VLAN devices, and the remote file servers.
- Non-isolated subscriber VLAN named Research, which provides internet access and enables communications between Research VLAN devices and the remote file servers.
