Thank you Sir, for the pat on the back, the acknowledgment of my attention to detail, wisdom, vlan acumen etc etc etc…
I just wanted to make sure I am not stark raving mad wrt vlan understanding (for the consumer router and CCR devices - dont ask me about actual chip driven devices).
It did not make sense to me that a access port can be a member of mulipless VLAN’s, so I just read up on d-links asymmetrical vlan, and all it is is a hybrid port, which Mikrotik already does.
Or am I missing something?
EDIT: Nevermind, found another article, and it sounds quite cool, in a nutshell, assymetric vlan allows you to “switch” between VLAN’s, so you don’t have to “route” between these VLAN’s
Well, actually it does on egress what a typical windows NIC driver does on ingress … strips all VLAN headers “switching” between VLANs is one of (benefitial if admin is aware of it) side effects.
