Traffic Segmentation

If tighter security is required for passing traffic from different clients through downlink
ports on the local network and over uplink ports to the service provider, port-based
traffic segmentation can be used to isolate traffic for individual clients.
Local traffic belonging to each client is isolated to the allocated downlink ports, and
upstream traffic coming from the downlink ports can only be forwarded to, and from,
uplink ports.
Command Usage
• When traffic segmentation is enabled, the forwarding state for the uplink and
downlink ports is shown below.

based on the settings specified by other functions such as VLANs and spanning
