Avi Load Balancer supports VLAN trunking on baremetal servers. If the Controller is deployed on a bare metal server, the individual physical links of the server can be configured to support 802.1q-tagged VLANs. Each VLAN interface has its own IP address. Multiple VLAN interfaces per physical link are supported.
