The port config for g1 with two VLANs untagged (1, 10) can't work.
For some experimentation and learning VLANs on your PA firewall, I would suggest to create set of ports as trunks, with multiple VLANs and all tagged.
Then add some test ports in access mode for each VLAN you want to experiment and test with. Such a test access port for VLAN X must be configured as untagged for port X, the PVID must be set to X so untagged frames re assigned to the correct.

Thank you!
I think my confusion is with trunk ports and how to flag them. I can get everything going through the default VLAN but I do not understand how to properly define the trunk port on a switch. Whenever I tag a port I lose connection. Do you have a good recommendation for how I can learn about this? I thought I just needed to mark the port as T and then all of my VLANs information would be passed along to the firewall, but I end up breaking my network whenever I mark port 1 as a trunk.
