Configuring a Native VLAN

SFTOS 2.5.1 introduced support for the native VLAN described in the IEEE 802.1Q specification as the
VLAN that handles control traffic. Native VLAN functionality applies to both physical and LAG
interfaces. Configuring a native VLAN is not mandatory; by default, VLAN 1 is the native VLAN.
For an example of configuring a native VLAN, see
Interface Rules:
1. An interface can be tagged for zero or more VLANs.
2. An interface can be untagged in one and only one VLAN.
3. An interface can be tagged and untagged at the same time for different VLANs, but it cannot be tagged
and untagged to the same VLAN at the same time.
4. Each interface must have a single native VLAN (tagged or untagged) at all times.
5. Any port that is only an untagged native should send/receive only untagged frames. By default, all
ports are in VLAN 1 (the default VLAN) as untagged native.
