Disable 802.1q: follow the“Port Based VLAN” rules
Fallback: if input is tagged, Virtual LAN map rules will be followed; if input tag is
not present in the map or input is untagged, Port Based VLAN rules will be followed
Secure: if input is tagged, Virtual LAN map rules will be followed; if input tag is not
present in the map or input is untagged, packets will be delete

VLAN can be used to route packets through

local and remote switch.
If VLAN are not used, then “Port Based Vlan”
