– VLAN tagging is required only on ports that are connected to other switches or on ports
that connect to tag-capable end-stations, such as servers with VLAN-tagging adapters.
Server 1
This server is a member of VLAN 1 and has presence in only one IP
subnet. The associated switch port is only a member of VLAN 1, so
tagging is disabled.
Server 2
This server is a member of VLAN 1 and has presence in only one IP
subnet. The associated switch port is only a member of VLAN 1, so
tagging is disabled.
Server 3
This server belongs to VLAN 2, and it is logically in the same IP sub-
net as Server 5.
The associated switch port has tagging disabled.
Server 4
A member of VLAN 3, this server can communicate only with other
servers via a router.
The associated switch port has tagging disabled.
Server 5
A member of VLAN 1 and VLAN 2, this server can communicate only
with Server 1, Server 2, and Server 3.
The associated switch port has tagging enabled.
Enterprise
