switches or on ports that connect to tag-capable end-stations, such as servers with VLAN-
tagging adapters.
PCs #1 and #2 These PCs are attached to a shared media hub that is then connected to
the switch. They belong to VLAN 2 and are logically in the same IP
subnet as Server 2 and PC 5. Tagging is not enabled on their switch
port.
