Probably a Stupid Question Tagged Interface

L2 Linker

This is probably a stupid question, but if I just create another Layer-3 sub-interface off of an existing physically connected interface, and TAG that sub interface, that is all I need to do to bring a tagged trunk in through an existing physical connection right?

 

Excluding, zones, virtual routers, policies, and all that other stuff, but the connectivity itself.

 

Say I have ethernet 1/1, which is Layer-3 10.0.0.1/30 and it has no tag or is UNTAGGED (i.e. no 802.1q) and let's say it is in the Inside Zone.

 

I could re-use that same physical connection ethernet 1/1 right and assign it say...

 

ethernet 1/1.123 TAG 123 Layer-3 192.168.0.1/30 My_Other_Zone

 

 

Doing that will not adversely impact my physical untagged connectivity right?

Hello,

No stupid questions here. You are correct where it should not disrupt the untagged traffic. Check out these articles.
