Works for me, but if you put in the 'inet' if breaks.

# ifconfig vlan600 create vlan 600 vlandev fxp1 inet 10.20.0.1/24
ifconfig: inet: bad value


man ifconfig:
 Since an interface can receive transmissions in differing
 protocols with different naming schemes, specifying the
 address family is recommended.

either needs to be revised to:
 except when creating a vlan, 'cause that causes sh*t to break

or, the ifconfig command needs to accept 'inet' when creating a vlan.


Is inet inherited from the 'vlandev' and therefore redundant?
