Configuring a Network or Subscriber VLAN Extension to Another Switch
You can extend a network or subscriber VLAN to another switch without configuring a PVLAN
on that switch. This configuration is introduced in
Extending Network and Subscriber VLANs
to Other Switches on page 256.
To add a network VLAN port as a PVLAN endpoint, use the following command:
configure {vlan} <vlan_name> add ports <port_list> tagged private-vlan
end-point
To configure the port on the switch that is outside of the PVLAN, use the following command:
configure {vlan} <vlan_name> add ports <port_list> tagged
Adding a Loopback Port to a Subscriber VLAN
NETGEAR 8800 series switches require a loopback port for certain configurations. If two or
more subscriber VLANs have overlapping ports (where the same ports are assigned to both
VLANs), each of the subscriber VLANs with overlapping ports must have a dedicated
loopback port.
The loopback port can be added when the subscriber VLAN is added to the PVLAN.
Managing Layer 3 Communications in a PVLAN
The default configuration for Layer 3 PVLAN communications is described in Layer 3
Communications on page 259. To enable Layer 3 communications between all ports in a
PVLAN, use the following command:
configure iparp add proxy [<ipNetmask> | <ip_addr> {<mask>}] {vr <vr_name>}
{<mac> | vrrp} {always}
Specify the IP address or subnet specified for the network VLAN in the PVLAN. Use the
always option to ensure that the switch will reply to ARP requests, regardless of the VLAN
from which it originated.
Deleting PVLANs
To delete an existing PVLAN, use the following command:
delete private-vlan <name>
Removing a VLAN from a PVLAN
When you remove a VLAN from a PVLAN, you remove the association between a VLAN and
the PVLAN. Both the VLAN and PVLAN exist after the removal.
To remove a network or subscriber VLAN from a PVLAN, use the following command:
configure private-vlan <name> delete [network | subscriber] <vlan_name>
