Chapter 5 Access Management Configuration

5.1 Access Management Overview

One of the typical Ethernet access networking scenario is that the users access
external network through the Ethernet switches. In this case, the external network is
connected to the Ethernet switch. The Ethernet switch connects to the Hubs, each of
which centralizes several PCs. The following figure illustrates the networking scenario.

If not-so-many users are connected to the switch, the ports allocated to different
enterprises need to belong to the same VLAN and different enterprises should be
isolated in the light of cost and security. All these requirements can be achieved with
the access management function by the Ethernet switches. See
Isolation measure is required, because otherwise the PCs in two organizations may
interwork with each other. The L2 isolation function at the switch port can ensure two
ports do not receive the packets from the other port, so that only those PCs in the same
organization can communicate with each other
