More Vman configuration questions

Im trying to configure Vman for the first time and hopefully have followed the documentation for a basic system.

Ist switch
Slot-1 SLOUGH_SWITCH4.69 # sh conf | include vman
configure vman ethertype 0x8100
create vman "SLOUGH4088"
configure vman SLOUGH4088 tag 4088
configure vman SLOUGH4088 add ports 1:48 tagged
configure vman SLOUGH4088 add ports 1:1 untagged ( customer facing port)

Conf vlan test1 add port 1:1 t (user vlan)
Conf vlan test2 add port 1:1 t ( user vlan )

( middle switch )

Slot-1 SLOUGH_SWITCH1.39 # sh conf | include vman
configure vman ethertype 0x8100
create vman "SLOUGH4088"
configure vman SLOUGH4088 tag 4088
configure vman SLOUGH4088 add ports 1:46-47 tagged

Bottom Switch

* Slot-1 SLOUGH_SWITCH3.16 # sh conf | include vman
configure vman ethertype 0x8100
create vman "SLOUGH4088"
configure vman SLOUGH4088 tag 4088
configure vman SLOUGH4088 add ports 1:48 tagged
configure vman SLOUGH4088 add ports 1:1 untagged ( customer facing port.

Conf vlan test1 add port 1:1 t
Conf vlan test2 add port 1:1 t

There are two other switches , one at each end , where test 1 and test 2 reside with IP addresses.

I have added an IP address also the the vman and this pings across ( which you would expect as it basic layer 2 connection

Please advise what am i missing ..

Frank , thanks for this .. my test1 and test 2 vlans are the vlans that I am trying to pass over the VMAN and then present them at the other side on the same port to an external switch ..

My understanding is as follows ..

I tag my user vlans ( test1 and 2 port 1:1 )
Port 1:1 is also configured as untagged for my VMAN.

Port 1:48 is tagged for VMAN through a number of switches , 1 in the case , then at the other end we repeat

User vlans tagged on port 1:1 ,VMAN vlan untagged on port 1:1

Oh and yes I have enabled jumbo frames..

DO I need to enable VMAN I cant find a command ..

I though this was just very basic stuff after reading the manual ..

Running 15.6 code through X670 units

How is your configured..

Oh, and did you enable jumbo-frames?
