That's because you defined a BD with a type of "default" which requires
that any IFL placed into that BD has to have all tags matching to be able
to bridge. If you wish to modify the tags, you have to use the
input-vlan-map and output-vlap-map to do so. Also keep in mind that the MX
will bridge on the C-TAG by default.

You can't use ENT-style IFL (family bridge) configurations with a default
BD (no vlan definition)

You'll just need to define each CTAG as you have been doing.
