This is a good point Fabio,
The hosts must have a static route to the connect network with the
Promiscuous Interface based router as the gateway. This way traffic between
hosts on the same segment but isolated is routed through the MSFC.
This is the problem with P-VLAN's IMO, as to ensure the same level of
security now access-lists etc, are needed to keep the hosts more secure.
This in turn negates the L-3 switching power. The only real advantage of the
P-VLAN is to ensure hosts cannot do ARP look-up's and spoof traffic to or
from other servers on the segment.
We only intend to use P-VLAN's for our backup-network, this is a network
where each host only needs to see the backup-server.
