• Enable Protected Ports — The Protected Ports feature provides layer-2
isolation between ports that share the same broadcast domain (VLAN). The
feature defines two types of ports:
- Protected ports: Only sends traffic to uplink ports
- Uplink ports: Can send traffic to any port
When selected, all FE ports are defined as protected ports for each VLAN, so
that they are isolated from other ports within the same VLAN. The GE ports
remain as unprotected ports that function as normal VLAN member ports.
