Total obsolete VLAN documentation

with

the kernel advises the DSA driver that kernel has management control over the 802.1Q tags on the DSA interfaces. That in consequence leads to this sort of routing and processing of 802.1Q tagged packages on the Lan segment (Lan port just picked randomly)


Letting instead DSA manage control over the 802.1Q tags on the DSA interfaces the traffic on the Lan segments stays within the swtich fabric instead


This is just for the TO. Now If you go with Mox and one or tow of the E modules one would likely prefer any 802.1Q tagged traffic to remain with the switch fabric and not being bounced up and down to the CPU for processing.
