Options

- BChange the PVLAN ID for the Accounting network to 2.
- CChange the PVLAN type for Marketing network to Promiscuous.

Explanation
Isolated secondary PVLANs can only communicate with promiscuous ports, so Accounting (Community) cannot reach Marketing (Isolated) under the current setup. The fix requires placing Accounting into a promiscuous role or the primary VLAN.
Common mistakes.
- C. Changing Marketing to Promiscuous does not resolve the issue because community ports in Accounting are still restricted from initiating traffic to what were formerly isolated-type ports under PVLAN forwarding rules.
- D. Moving Accounting's PVLAN ID to 4 places it in the same isolated PVLAN as Marketing, but isolated ports cannot communicate with each other regardless of sharing the same PVLAN ID - they can only reach promiscuous ports.
Concept tested. Private VLAN secondary type communication restrictions
