Command History
Usage Guidelines When you configure a port as a host private VLAN port and one of the following applies, the port
becomes inactive:
• The port does not have a valid private VLAN association configured.
• The port is a Switched Port Analyzer (SPAN) destination.
• The private VLAN association is suspended.
If you delete a private VLAN port association or if you configure a private port as a SPAN destination,
the deleted private VLAN port association or the private port that is configured as a SPAN destination
becomes inactive.
Note We recommend that you enable spanning tree BPDU Guard on all private VLAN host ports.
