http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/802.1q is a good high level overview of what is required.
Thanks. I see.

NDIS_NET_BUFFER_LIST_8021Q_INFO contains info about 802.1Q, i need to insert 802.1Q tag in the frame before transmitting it to the backend, then strips the tag after receiving those packets. I will add those process and have a test.

It works. This test case passed after i added process above.

Thanks
