Private VLAN Type (cpvlanVlanEditPrivateVlanType)

Indicates the VLAN type, as defined for the private VLAN feature.

Note: A VLAN's private VLAN type cannot be changed once ports have been assigned to it.

Associated Primary VLAN (cpvlanVlanEditAssocPrimaryVlan)

Identifier of the associated primary VLAN used for the private VLAN feature if the value of cpvlanVlanEditPrivateVlanType is either "isolated(3)", "community(4)", or "twoWayCommunity(5)". When the value of cpvlanVlanEditPrivateVlanType is either "normal(1)" or "primary(2)", then this object has a value of zero.

Please note the following:

- One isolated VLAN can be associated with only one unique primary VLAN. Similarly, one primary VLAN can be associated with only one isolated VLAN.

- One primary VLAN can be associated with multiple community or two-way community VLANs. However, the opposite is not true. One community or two-way community VLAN can be associated with only one unique primary VLAN.
