Is vlan 1 always native (untagged) or can you specify that? I

a hardware or software issue.
its my understanding that if you're using vlan tagging on a given link,
ALL packets are supposed to be tagged, as the tag is a prefix on the
ethernet header. mixing tagged and untagged packets would be very messy.
No, 802.1q has a concept of 'native' packets being assigned to a
specified single vlan. This has to be understood by each interface that
can be configured as a trunk. I just couldn't get the Intel windows
proset driver to do it - but that was several years ago.
