Hi all, I'm putting together some notes based on the 3560 configuration guide and came across configuring protected ports in the "port-based traffic control" section of the guide. While I understand the concept and configuration, I'm trying to understand the nuances between protected ports and p-vlan isolated ports and how this would be applied to a question on the lab exam.
>From reading the config guide, the only differences I see are: - the ability to configure the protected port feature on etherchannel interfaces, which the p-vlan feature lacks - protected ports are only locally significant on a switch, where if I have two switches trunked together, protected ports on one switch would be able to communicate with protected ports off the adjacent switch (assuming the trunk is an unprotected port) Am I correct in stating the only major difference is protected ports are locally significant and p-vlan isolated ports span the entire L2 domain? Thanks, Steve
