According to the IEEE 802.1Q standard, frames that belong to the native VLAN are transmitted over a trunk link without a VLAN tag. This is the default behavior to maintain compatibility with devices that do not understand VLAN tagging. Frames for all other VLANs are tagged with their respective VLAN IDs before being sent across the trunk.
