Hi, I am using a 2.4.21-4 kernel so it has 8021q compiled in as a module. My purpose of using vlan is to tag packets with a specific vlan id, which are destined for particular vlans, 2258 and 20 (both set up on the switch), from the interface level; here being eth0:0 to go to vlan 20 and eth0:1 destined for vlan 2258. Is there a way to do this with vconfig? I don't see options for doing this in the docs. Also when I followed the instructions on creating a vlan at http://scry.wanfear.com/~greear/vlan/howto.html the command: vconfig add eth0 2 creates an interface/vlan called eth0.2 and not vlan002. (I just want to ask if this is expected behavior). Cheers, Patrice Seyed Linux System Administrator - LinGA RHCE, SCSA Boston University Medical Campus
