I don't know what happens with double tagged vlan packets. There should be no limit on the number of vlans supported, but with the current code, performance will be crap for large numbers because it searches the list of all vlans to match the tag. We need to add per-interface array of pointers to vlan interfaces instead. The number of vlans maximum allowed by the standard is small enough that blowing that memory is worth if for constant access time compared the complexity of using a balanced tree. > maybe there are some solutions in netgraph sphere?
