private vlan or ip segregation on vlan
Hello. I'm looking to understand if the GS308T has the ability to isolate devices on the same vlan? I believe it would be considered a private vlan. I"m using a MAC based vlan configuration and wou...
John thank you. The recommendation makes sense and I believe would work for port based vlans. Am I correct that the smartswitch I have just lacks the functionality I’m looking for ? Since I’m using Mac based vlans with one output port using one wire leaving the switch then I really can isolate the endpoints?
1- is my understanding correct?
2- which netgear switches would support end point isolation?
Thank you

Your switch is perfectly fine but the problem is the setup itself. The main purpose of us creating VLANs is for us to have logical groups in our network and for them to communicate with each other. But you have the opposite, you want them on the same network but you wanted them to be isolated. As to what I am saying, this is just a workaround for your setup to work. But you have a MAC-based VLAN, so I don't think this setup is for you.
You may check our M4250 switch as the datasheet says that it supports Primary VLAN, Isolated VLAN, Community VLAN, Promiscuous port, Host port, Trunks.
