Change to Enable Networking with AFW

By default, the p3898 switch is configured to work with AURIX IFW. In order for Tegra and AURIX communication over VLAN to work with Aurix AFW, nv_tacp_init.sh script must be updated.
  • The nv_3898_vlan_setup.sh script (called from nv_tacp_init.sh) that configures the p3898 switch for VLAN.
  • When one argument is passed, the script configures the switch to work with AURIX IFW. If no argument is passed, the switch is configured to work with Aurix AFW.
  • Remove the argument passed to the nv_3898_vlan_setup.sh script (i.e., remove ifw) to make it work with AURIX AFW.
