Hi Banuka , Without a L2 or a L3 switch , how would you create traffic isolation ? I am assuming you are trying to connect the ports of your two computers directly . Please give some more information on what you are exactly trying to do . For using some features of advanced networking , you can configure a L2 switch as well.
If you give some more information , few hardcore networking guys on the community can definitely help you out.

Do we need to compulsory have a switch and configured VLAN on it or Is there any other alternative to this. I'm just exploring all these features at home with two computers.
