TRAFFIC SEGMENTATION
If tighter security is required for passing traffic from different clients
through downlink ports on the local network and over uplink ports to the
service provider, port-based traffic segmentation can be used to isolate
traffic for individual clients.
Traffic belonging to each client is isolated to the allocated downlink ports.
But the switch can be configured to either isolate traffic passing across a
client’s allocated uplink ports from the uplink ports assigned to other
clients, or to forward traffic through the uplink ports used by other clients,
allowing different clients to share access to their uplink ports where
security is less likely to be compromised.
