Expected, there is no way to differentiate between tagged and untagged
traffic. It's showing you the traffic that's passing over that
interface, which includes the VLANs assigned as other interfaces. You
shouldn't use the parent interface with VLANs (for reasons completely
unrelated to this, and not product/vendor specific). I would plan to
change that, or just live with the understanding that the parent
interface will always have the sum of all VLAN traffic and that your
network is possibly open to VLAN hopping from tagged to parent
interface.
