DCS-3950 series Ethernet switch manual
1. Set the uplink port
Command Explanation
isolate-port allowed ethernet
<InterfaceList>
no isolate-port allowed [ethernet
<InterfaceList>]
Enable or disable the port isolation
function. A uplink port list is needed to
enable it. This command can be called
more than once to set or cancel uplink
ports.
5.8.2.2 Isolating Interfaces
Command: isolate-port allowed ethernet <InterfaceList>
no isolate-port allowed [ethernet <InterfaceList>]
Function: Enable or disable the isolation of interfaces. Upward interfaces should be
specified when the interface isolation is enabled. This command can be invoked
repeatedly, to enable or disable every upward interface.
Parameters: <InterfaceList> is the list for the upward interfaces, which is separated by ‘-’
or ‘;’.
Command mode: Global Mode.
Default: Interface isolation is disabled by default.
Usage Guide:
1. Interface isolation will be enabled once the upward interfaces are enabled. As a result,
all the interfaces except upward interfaces can not communicate with each other. But
for upward interfaces, it can communicate with other interfaces.
2. When the upward interfaces are disabled, the interface isolation will be disabled. Then
all the interfaces can communicate with each other.
3. Mostly fast ethernet interfaces are configured as downward interfaces. If the fast
ethernet interfaces are configured as upward interfaces, the configuration will take
effect for 8 interfaces as a unit, If ethernet 0/0/1 is configured to be upward interface,
then ethenet 0/0/1~8 will be upward. If ethernet 0/0/1 is configured to be downward
port, then the ethernet 0/0/1~8 will be isolated.
Example: Configure ethernet 0/0/25 and ethernet 0/0/26 as upward, and all the other
ports are isolated.
