I am doing this with no problems so I suspect you are doing something wrong. As an example, the following creates a IEEE802.1Q trunk on em0 with 192.168.1.0/24 untagged and the remaining subnett tagged: ifconfig em0 inet 192.168.1.123/24 ifconfig vlan10 inet 192.168.10.123/24 vlandev em0 vlan 10 ifconfig vlan11 inet 192.168.11.123/24 vlandev em0 vlan 11 ifconfig vlan12 inet 192.168.12.123/24 vlandev em0 vlan 12 ifconfig vlan13 inet 192.168.13.123/24 vlandev em0 vlan 13 Can you post the rc.conf etc entries that you are using and a description of what you are trying to achieve. -- Peter Jeremy
