You can configure the Summit using a combination of port-based and tagged VLANs. A
given port can be a member of multiple VLANs, with the stipulation that only one of its
VLANs uses untagged traffic. In other words, a port can simultaneously be a member of
one port-based VLAN and multiple tag-based VLANs.

For the purposes of VLAN classification, packets arriving on a port with an
802.1Q tag containing a VLANid of zero are treated as untagged.

The Generic VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP) allows a LAN device to signal other
neighboring devices that it wishes to receive packets for one or more VLANs. The
GVRP protocol is defined as part of the IEEE 802.1Q Virtual LANs draft standard. The
main purpose of the protocol is to allow switches to automatically discover some of the
VLAN information that would otherwise have to be manually configured in each
switch. GVRP can also be run by network servers. These servers are usually configured
to join several VLANs, and then signal the network switches of the VLANs of which
they want to be part.
