------------------------------------------+--------------------------------
 Hello, I am testing on a TP-LINK TL-WR1043ND router with a rtl8366rb
 switch chipset using OpenWRt 14.07 Barrier Breaker final release.

 I have found that the following cases -- a new BB 14.07 install, a reset
 to BB defaults, and in an upgrade to 14.07 from 12.09 -- the enable_vlan4k
 setting is not present in /etc/config/network.

 The hardware supports this setting. LuCI also immediately adds it by
 default. If I go to Network > Switch > make no changes > just click "Save
 & Apply" on a new BB install, the switch section in /etc/config/network
 changes from:

 {{{
 config switch
         option name 'switch0'
         option reset '1'
         option enable_vlan '1'
 }}}

 to:

 {{{
 config switch
         option name 'switch0'
         option reset '1'
         option enable_vlan '1'
         option enable_vlan4k '1'
 }}}

 The problem I have run into is especially on upgrades. This keyword used
 to not be needed to have tagged+untagged VLANs work. I have VLAN 1 and
 VLAN 4, with VLAN 4 tagged on all ports. However, at least with 14.07 (and
 maybe 12.09, not sure), tagged+untagged stops working until enable_vlan4k
 is enabled, and then it works fine again after this setting is enabled.
 This was hard to figure out when I first ran into it.

 It would be helpful (as it seems enable_vlan4k should always be enabled)
 to have the autodetection and configuration that LuCI does in
 /usr/lib/lua/luci/model/cbi/admin_network/vlan.lua by checking the output
 of "swconfig dev rtl8366rb help" to happen on OS startup somehow, so the
 setting is always set right. This will fix any possible upgrade cases as
 well as help those who make VLAN changes using SSH instead of through
 LuCI.

 Thanks,
 Tim Miller Dyck
