Figure 5-5. Data transmissions between 802.1Q-compliant
Switches
In the above example, step 4 is the key element. Because the packet
has 802.1Q VLAN data encoded in its header, the ingress port can
make VLAN-based decisions about its delivery: whether server #2 is
attached to a port that is a member of VLAN 2 and, thus, should the
packet be delivered; the queuing priority to give to the packet, etc. It
can also perform these functions for VLAN 1 packets as well, and, in
fact, for any tagged packet it receives regardless of the VLAN
number.
If the ingress port in step 4 were connected to a non-802.1Q-
compliant device and was thus receiving untagged packets, it would
