Explanation
When a switch port receives an untagged frame, the port adds the default VLAN ID, known as the PVID (Port VLAN ID), to the frame. This ensures that the frame is associated with a specific VLAN before it is forwarded. The PVID represents the VLAN to which the port belongs and is used when the port receives untagged traffic. This behavior is typical for access and hybrid ports in a VLAN-enabled switch configuration.
