Command History
Usage Guidelines When you configure a port as a promiscuous private VLAN port and one of the following applies, the
port becomes inactive:
• The port does not have a valid private VLAN mapping configured.
• The port is a Switched Port Analyzer (SPAN) destination.
If you delete a private VLAN port mapping or if you configure a private port as a SPAN destination, the
deleted private VLAN port mapping or the private port that is configured as a SPAN destination becomes
inactive.
See the private-vlan command for more information on promiscuous ports.
Examples This example shows how to set a port to promiscuous mode for private VLANs:
switch(config-if)# switchport mode private-vlan promiscuous
