Hi everybody, I have a configuration in linux as below:

NB ))) AP(eth0)---PC

#brctl show
bridge name-----bridge id------STP enabled-----interfaces
br0---------------8000.00xx...--no---------------eth0
-----------------------------------------------------wla_ath02
brv_10-----------8000.00xx...---no--------------eth0.10
-----------------------------------------------------wlg_ath22

I use wifi interface of NB to connect to wla_ath02 and ping to another device(PC) which connected to eth0. The PC recives the packet with vlan id 0. Why? Is there something wrong? How can I fix this problem? Thanks.

this seems to be normal. in networking VLAN's are used to segregate traffic across switches and routers. normally, you don't change a workstation/server's vlan id, instead you change the switch's port. i believe therefore vlan id 0 is equivalent of no vlan.

Thanks Sudowtf.
I have another question about untag vlan id.
If I want to untag packet in bridge brv_10,could I used this command...

ebtables -t broute -A BROUTING -i eth0 -p 802.1q --vlan-id 10 -j DROP

to untag vlan packet or you have any others method to do this. Thanks.

i do not know. it seems a drop command would drop the entire packet.
