The tagged port will always send out packets with a tag. If untagged packet is received, a
tag will be added with the PVID setting of the ingress port before it is forwarded to the
tagged port. The 802.1Q VLAN information will be carried in the tag.
The untagged port will always send out packets without tag. If a tagged packet is received,
the tag will be removed from the packet before forwarded to an untagged port.
Note: Most network adapters or devices are untagged devices. If they are connected to a
tagged port, they will not be able to access the network because of the tag in the packet.
Only users in the same VLAN as the Management Port PVID (configured in “802.1Q VLAN)
can manage the switch via Web/Telnet/SNMP. Users in other VLANs will not be able to
manage the switch from the network.
