Your ifconfig output is from when it's working, isn't it? Start from not-working and diff the two (ifconfig > /tmp/broken; ifconfig trunk0 \ 10.1.1.1; ifconfig | diff -u /tmp/broken -) and see what changed. You'll probably see that before you added the address it wasn't configured "UP". If that's the case, you just need to add the word "up" on a line in /etc/hostname.trunk0 > Read some postings about changing mtu on vlan devices, but don't know > enough to know what to do. If changing mtu makes a difference to vlans, you're probably better off searching for better NICs.
