Port isolation configuration
Introduction to port isolation
Port isolation enables isolating Layer 2 traffic for data privacy and security without using VLANs. You can
also use this feature to isolate the hosts in a VLAN from one another.
To use the feature, you assign ports to a port isolation group. Ports in an isolation group are called
“isolated ports.” One isolated port cannot forward Layer 2 traffic to any other isolated port on the same
switch, even if they are in the same VLAN. Still, an isolated port can communicate with any port outside
the isolation group if they are in the same VLAN.
The switch series supports only one isolation group: “isolation group 1.” This isolation group is
automatically created and cannot be deleted. There is no limit on the number of member ports.
