According to people in -questions on 18 Dec of last year, it's not possible. I imagine it's because the vlan interfaces don't push their packets through ether_input, like real interfaces do. Julian's approach would put the vlan's on ng_ether, which would push through the code that does the bridging. Last December 20 on -net, he said the caode for a VLAN netgraph node was being donated by "this French committer" (sorry, I don't remember the exact words he used; I only scanned the posting in passing, 4 months ago, when VLAN's weren't important to me). -- Terry To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-net" in the body of the message
