Thank you Ben for your quick response. For the sake of trying, I increased the VLAN_PROC_BUFSZ to 32k and was able to get rid of the error message from the config file for 1000 vlans. I do get only up to ethx.267 listed in the /proc/net/vlan. As you said, I get all 1000 vlan interfaces whith ifconfig. Thanks a lot. -> cat vlan_proc_buf.patch --- linux-2.4.21/net/8021q/vlanproc.h 2005-02-11 10:47:12.000000000 -0500 +++ linux-2.4.21.orig/net/8021q/vlanproc.h 2001-10-30 18:08:12.000000000 -0500 @@ -7,6 +7,6 @@ int vlan_proc_rem_dev(struct net_device int vlan_proc_add_dev (struct net_device *vlandev); void vlan_proc_cleanup (void); -#define VLAN_PROC_BUFSZ (32768) /* buffer size for printing proc info */+#define VLAN_PROC_BUFSZ (4096) /* buffer size for printing proc info */ #endif /* !(__BEN_VLAN_PROC_INC__) */ On Thu, 10 Feb 2005 16:17:34 -0800, Ben Greear <greearb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Srishty Srishty wrote: > > Hi, > > > > I was playing with the vlan scaling on my redhat 8.0.
