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?
