This leads to the possibility of the administrator setting a port VLAN filter for the VF after the VF has already configured its own VLAN filters. This leads to a conflict that can only be resolved by reloading the VF driver. When the conflicting administrative command is detected in setting the port VLAN then log a message indicating to the system administrator that he must now reload the VF driver for the new port VLAN settings to take effect.
