Configure vlan security Netgear GS728TPPv2 M4100-24PoE+

Hi Schumaku,
OK, I take the point and of course can all be done on UTM. It was just me being strange and wanting to do all the Vlan work on the switch rather than UTM and looking at rather neat solution which might have improved my knowledge base. (I know, it is still rather low!).
Will take the soft option and many thanks for your informative reply.
If I get stuck I shall start a new thread so saying thanks again.
Regards,
Alastair

If you can't manage this single UTM port (whatver UTM you talk of here) to be split into multiple VLAN to two or more networks (one untagged and same PVID, all others tagged, and then assign individual subnets - features decent UTM systems certainly allow - better stay far away from PVLAN, which are technically double tagged frames.
Again, this PVLAN is done if service or cloud providers where customers can extend thier own VLANs over a trunk into into a data centre, and every customer can retain it's own VLAN numbering and design. Very uncommon fature on a UTM system btw.
