It's 2007, I used L3 routed links...

Why do we ever need end to end vlans? Local vlan's only for me...

Hi All,

Thanks for sharing.

I used to think that we can easily VLAN-hop across 802.1Q trunk by
configuring different native VLAN at both ends. Having labbed it, I realize
STP actually blocks off those inconsistent VLANs.

In real-world, I typically set the native VLANs to a bogus non-routable VLAN
and prune it ("switchport trunk allowed vlan remove...") from the trunk.
What's your practice?

Thank you.

B.Rgds,
Lim TS
