User Guidelines
Private VLAN Edge (PVE) supports private communication by isolating PVE-defined ports and ensuring that all
Unicast, Broadcast and Multicast traffic from these ports is only forwarded to uplink port(s).
PVE requires only one VLAN on each device, but not on every port; this reduces the number of VLANs required
by the device. Private VLANs and the default VLAN function simultaneously in the same device.
The uplink must be a GE port.
