The following figure shows tunneled VLAN tags. On the dedicated, green network, both uplink and server

VLAN tags are tunneled through Virtual Connect unchanged. On the shared, red and blue networks, uplink
VLAN tags are mapped to networks. Untagged frames are mapped to the native VLAN, if present, otherwise

they are dropped. Server frames are untagged only, and tagged frames are dropped. Each server port is

connected to a single network.
