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.
