Hi everybody! My question is probably not rella vlan specific, but I could use some advice anyway. ;-) I am using vconfig to set up a virtual eth0.2 device. I have succesfully used the iproute2 tools to set IP addresses and MAC addresses. I am using vconfig because I need two MAC addresses on one NIC. My goal is to assign the same IP and MAC address to two virtual eth0.2 devices on two different hosts. Ideally, this would result in both hosts returning the same MAC address as the virtual IP address is requested. Further, both hosts would then receive the message. This setup is possible, but as the arp request is made, the kernel replies with the physical MAC address and not the virtual address configured for eth0.2. Does anybody know how to force the virtual address to be returned? I am new to vlan and have never been this deep into networking. ;-) Therefore, I would be grateful for any advice or ideas on how I might be able to get this setup working. Thanks, Dennis
