Configuring the Native VLAN for Untagged Traffic
A trunk port configured with IEEE 802.1Q tagging can receive both tagged and untagged traffic. By default,
the switch forwards untagged traffic in the native VLAN configured for the port. The native VLAN is VLAN
1 by default.
The native VLAN can be assigned any VLAN ID.
