Private VLan in 3550

[mtrf]

we are going to purchase cisco 3550 switches for our DMZs setup, we would like to utilise the Private VLAN (PVLAN) features in order to protect our individual server from any attack or any compromise servers. Can any body highlight some more on this how best is this to configure pvlans in cisco 3550 switches and is there any issues with Checkpoint Firewall.

where I will get step by step commands. I searched on cisco site but lost myself for finding the step by step documentation.

I find one documentation which was very good but it is for cisco 6500 series switches. please see the link for that http://www.cisco.com/warp/customer/473/90.shtml

Thanks in advance

Here is a link that I hope helps you with your coinfiguration. See Configuring Protected Ports portion for the PVLAN feature.

I don't know any issues with specific vendor equipment (e.g. Checkpoint FW, etc).

Hope this helps you,

Don
