Configuring Port-based 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.
Traffic belonging to each client is isolated to the allocated downlink ports. But the switch can be
configured to either isolate traffic passing across a client’s allocated uplink ports from the uplink
ports assigned to other clients, or to forward traffic through the uplink ports used by other clients,
allowing different clients to share access to their uplink ports where security is less likely to be
compromised.
