When the port received tagged frames,
1. If the tagged frame with TPID=0x8100, it become a
double-tag frame, and is forwarded.
2. If the TPID of tagged frame is not 0x8100 (ex.
0x88A8), it will be discarded.
The TPID of frame transmitted
by Unaware port will be set to
0x8100.
The final status of the frame
