NETGEAR 7000 Series Managed Switch Administration Guide Version 7.3
Protected Ports
This section describes how to set up protected ports on the switch. Some situations might require that traffic
is prevented from being forwarded between any ports at Layer 2 so that one user cannot see the traffic of
another user on the same switch.
Protected Ports:
•
Prevent traffic from being forwarded between protected ports
•
Allow traffic to be forwarded between a protected port and a non-protected port
In following example, PC1 and PC2 can access the Internet as usual, but PC1 cannot see the traffic that is
generated by PC2, that is, no traffic is forwarded between PC1 and PC2.
