In the above example, there are three different VLANs and
each port can transmit packets on one of them according
to their Port VLAN ID (PVID) number. However, a port can
receive packets on all VLANs (VID ) that it belongs to. The
assignments are as follows:

The server attached to Port 7 is shared by VLAN 1 and
VLAN 2 because Port 7 is a member of both VLANs (it is
listed as a member of VID 1 and 2). Since it can receive
packets from both VLANs, all ports can successfully send
