    ISTR that some years ago, I did a check and found that ~0.5% of
    packets in our corporate network were being leaked into the incorrect
    VLAN. [Though my memory may be going] I haven't looked recently.

    I've also got a switch that believes that VLANs are only related
    to IP - it will happily copy DECnet packets to all switch ports
    irrespective of VLAN associations. (And this switch came from
    the company that DEC sold their switch business to).
