Bug ID: 270942
Summary: FreeBSD Handbook section on VLANs example doesn't up
the parent interface
Product: Documentation
Version: Latest
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Only Me
Priority: ---
Component: Website
Assignee: d...@freebsd.org
Reporter: le...@freebsd.org
I haven't used VLANs with FreeBSD in a bit so I check the handbook to see how
to do it. This is the example that is provided:
vlans_em0="5"
ifconfig_em0_5="inet 192.168.20.20/24"
(Which manes use of network.subr helper sh code.) However when I did something
similar it didn't work. I eventually figured out my problem was that the parent
interface was down; once I brought it up things start working.
Would it be reasonable to add:
ifconfig_em0="up"
to the handbook example?
