Trusted VF is allowed to get as many VLANs as possible - to HW limits. Please note this could mean other VFs may not get them AT ALL.

At this time, there aren't any other features.

I've found docs saying only that trust mode allows "for example" promisc mode on VF or MAC address manipulation. I would like to know all the features of trusted VF in comparison to untrusted VF. My i40e driver version: 2.3.2-k Thank you in advance.
