Introduction to Port Isolation

Usually, Layer 2 traffic isolation is achieved by assigning ports to different VLANs. To save VLAN
resources, port isolation is introduced to isolate ports within a VLAN, allowing for great flexibility and
security.

To use the feature, you assign ports to a port isolation group. Ports in an isolation group are called
isolated ports. An isolated port does not forward any 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 other
port outside the isolation group, provided that they are in the same VLAN

S7500E series Ethernet switches support only one isolation group that is created automatically by the
system as isolation group 1. You can neither remove the isolation group nor create other isolation
groups on such devices. There is no restriction on the number of ports assigned to an isolation group.
