2-3 interfaces. :) or There are quite a few "double vlan" implementations out there if you're really that desperate, though I don't think there is a standard so that they all interoperate. This is mainly used to provision metro ethernet services where you provide a vlan per customer and they want to be able to use their own vlans without consulting you for numbering. -- Richard A Steenbergen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.e-gerbil.net/ras GPG Key ID: 0xF8B12CBC (7535 7F59 8204 ED1F CC1C 53AF 4C41 5ECA F8B1 2CBC) _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
