+ This parameter enables double VLAN taggings by the switch ports.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ By setting this parameter as <code>true</code> service provider
+ supports customer VLANs by double tagging the VLAN tag. Each
+ customer packet traversing the service provider network is tagged
+ twice:
+ the inner-most 802.1Q header contains the customer-chosen VLAN ID,
+ and the outer-most header contains the VLAN ID assigned to the
+ customer by the service provider
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ By enabling this parameter, the switch port becomes a service
+ provider port and access ports can accept both tagged and untagged
+ frames. Access ports without 'dvlan tags' are called customer ports.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ The behavior of native-tagged, native-untagged and trunk ports
+ remains same regardless of this setting.

+ By default, this field is <code>false</code>.
