VLANEnable property of VLanNetworkInterface May 20, 2022 2:38:58 GMT

Hi,

In VLanNetworkInterface schema (redfish.dmtf.org/schemas/DSP2046_2021.4.html), it says VLANEnable property "shall indicate whether this VLAN is enabled for this VLAN network interface". In my understanding, a VLanNetworkInterface always enables VLAN. But this property is writable, may I ask what's the meaning when it is false?

Thanks

A reasonable explanation I think is it actually Enables/Disables the VLANId on the interface. But when using EthernetInterface resources to show VLAN information (suggested by schema). Having this meaning may actually duplicates the "InterfaceEnabled" property.

But I will bring it up as a question. Jeff
