Explain why in modern networks the native VLAN is set to an unused VLAN and the trunk port is configured to tag its native VLAN traffic as well.
What will be an ideal response?
Native VLANs exist to provide compatibility with older or simpler non-VLAN tagging switches, but there is a catch. The native VLAN opens your network to a nasty vulnerability called a double-tagging attack that lets the attacker access VLANs they should not be able to access. For this reason, in modern networks the native VLAN is set to an unused VLAN and the trunk port is configured to tag its native VLAN traffic as well.
