ESXI 6.7 host and Nexus 7k1 Switch Trunking

I am using Virtual Switch Tagging (VST) between ESXI 6.7 host and
Nexus 7k switch, N7K1,this way :
I have created Vlans 88,90-95 on N7K1 where by vlan 88
is native. ESXI 6.7 host management network is on Vlan 88
Trunking between N7K1 and ESXI 6.7 host is like this
N7K1(config)# int e2/1
N7K1(config)# switchport
N7K1(config)#switchport mode trunk
N7K1(config)#switchport trunk native vlan 88
N7K1(config)#no ip address
N7K1(config)#switchport trunk allowed vlan 88-99,129
N7K1(config)#switchport dot1q ethertype 0x9100
N7K1(config)#spanning-tree port type edge trunk

The native vlan 88
N7K1(config)# vlan 80
N7K1(config-vlan)# name VL80
N7K1(config)# feature interface-vlan
N7K1(config)# int vlan 88
N7K1(config-if)# ip add 10.1.88.251/24

When I use this configuration I lose connection to ESXI 6.7 host
but when change switchport trunk native vlan 88 to
switchport access vlan 88 I retain connection to ESXI 6.7 host but
none of its guests in different vlans are accessible

Anywhere in my configurations are wrong ?
