setting up a network with a 2810-48G switch

[lay-tay]

Hi,

For a project in a building , I need to setup 32 appartments to a 2810 switch. all 32 appartments (ports 1-32) need to be isolated from each other, but every app/port should have the possibility to communicate with ports 33-48. Can you explain me which functionality/possibility I need to use?

If possible I also would like to provide every app/port with its own IP-number range (nice to have)

thanks, Robert.

Hello,

Private vlan can help making sure that ports 1-32 will no communicate each other and at the same time can communicate with the other ports.

Hi,

not sure about private vlan as it is more cisco term. On 2810 Protected ports feature should help. Another feature is Source-port filtering, but it is more complex than Protected ports. Protected ports cannot communicate with each other and can communicate only with unprotected ports.

You can find complete explanation and simple configuration in Access Security Guide for 2810:

To have dedicated IP address range on each port, you probably have to divide each port to separate vlan.

To have dedicated IP address range on each port, you probably have to divide each port to separate vlan... span vlans to router and solve routing to server/servers.

Hi,

I've left the idea to work with Vlan's. The protected ports solutions is providing me the solution I was looking for.

All ports are separated from each other, the only thing it can't do is to provide a certain range of IP addresses to each port, but this was a nice to have and not necessary.

many thanks.
