What is isolated VLAN network?
Isolated: Any switch ports associated with an Isolated VLAN can reach the primary VLAN, but not any other Secondary VLAN. In addition, hosts associated with the same Isolated VLAN cannot reach each other.
What is private VLAN configuration?
The Private VLANs feature separates a regular VLAN domain into two or more subdomains. Each subdomain is defined (represented) by a primary VLAN and a secondary VLAN. Only one primary VLAN can be configured per private VLAN. All ports within a private VLAN share the same primary VLAN.
What is the purpose of a private VLAN?
Private VLANs block all traffic to isolated ports except traffic from promiscuous ports. Traffic received from an isolated port is forwarded only to promiscuous ports. You can have more than one isolated port in a specified isolated VLAN. Each port is completely isolated from all other ports in the isolated VLAN.
Can a fully Isolated VLAN be set up?
A fully isolated VLAN, in most situations, is Layer 2 (L2) connectivity without access via a route to devices on other TCP/IP networks from the network switching perspective. A fully isolated network can be set up with dedicated interfaces and switching, but in many cases this becomes cost-prohibitive and difficult to obtain the required ports.

The EdgeRouter’s job is to route between networks.
How are private VLANs used on Cisco switches?
This setup prevents the waste of IP addresses. Private VLANs (PVLANs) allow the isolation at Layer 2 of devices in the same IP subnet. You can restrict some ports on the switch to reach only specific ports that have a default gateway, backup server, or Cisco LocalDirector attached.
