Tagged:

Ports with tagging enabled will put the VID number, priority and other VLAN information into the

header of all packets that flow into those ports. If a packet has previously been tagged, the port

will not alter the packet, thus keeping the VLAN information intact. The VLAN information in the

tag can then be used by other 802.1Q compliant devices on the network to make

packet-forwarding decisions.

Untagged:

Ports with untagging enabled will strip the 802.1Q tag from all packets that flow into those

ports. If the packet doesn't have an 802.1Q VLAN tag, the port will not alter the packet. Thus,

all packets received by and forwarded by an untagging port will have no 802.1Q VLAN

information. (Remember that the PVID is only used internally within the Switch). Untagging is

used to send packets from an 802.1Q-compliant network device to a non-compliant network

device.
