Revert to default VLAN ID on switch and arrays
Once DCB is disabled on the switch, the EqualLogic arrays will no longer use the VLAN ID that was
configured when DCB was enabled. The arrays will revert to the default or native VLAN. Therefore, a valid
VLAN must be configured for all host servers, switches, and EqualLogic array members. A valid VLAN can
use the default or native VLAN ID (typically 0 or 1) or a specific VLAN can be configured (for example,
VLAN 100). If a non-default VLAN is configured, then any ports connected to the arrays must be
configured as “untagged”.
