inter pvlan communication

[rajivrajan1]

Hi guys,

hope u r doing fine.

I have a problem with private vlans.In a shared environment, I am supposed to host multiple webservers under a private vlan

like

PRIMARY VLAN 1

|

secondary VLANs

1 2 3

Servers from secondary vlan 1 can never see a server in Sec.vlan 2 or 3 and vice versa.I need this to be accomblished in layer two.

I hope,If im going to layer three and subnetting then there is no need of private vlans.

Is there any possiblity?

thanks in adance

Hello,

with vlan, private or not, there is no communciations at layer 2 between vlans.

Once you place a router, or layer 3 switch, there may be communication at layer 3 that you can limit with use of configuration.

In any case, each vlan should use a different IP subnet.

Hope this helps, please rate post if it does!
