If an L2 switch cannot read VLAN, will the tag exist out of egress?

[jmaxwellUSAF]

Hello.

If an L2 switch cannot read VLAN tags, will the VLAN tag still exist when the switch transmits the frame it out it's egress port?

Thank you.

Works for me, doing this is PT:

!L3sw1

interface GigabitEthernet1/0/1

interface Vlan1
ip address 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0

!L3sw2

interface GigabitEthernet1/0/1
switchport trunk native vlan 10
switchport mode trunk

interface Vlan10
ip address 192.168.1.2 255.255.255.0

I.e. switches connected g1/0/1<>g1/0/1; either switch can ping other switch's IP

Ping from router to router not from Svi to Svi.

Seems to work just find too, using IPs on each router to ping other router.

I've attached PT file so you can see for yourself.
