The X520 should have no problems hashing on a single VLAN tagged frame. 
  However the VLAN will not be a part of the RSS hash.  The  only 
components of the hash are the IPv4/IPv6 source and destination 
addresses, and if the flow is TCP then the port numbers.

I would recommend testing with something like the "netperf -t TCP_CRR" 
test which should open a number of ports and spread traffic out between 
multiple queues.

Thanks,

Alex
