Hi stephen,

As I understand "dot1q tag native" is more like best practice. Without that
command dot1q tunneling will have problem only when customer trunk site and
SP trunk side use same native vlan, and customer use native vlan carry data
traffic.
Never have chance to test it, anyone who lab it can commend on it.

HTH,

Lei
