The last two documents are draft standards for 802.1Q and 802.1p. // Nothing -- just stick on the right header and go. (Of course, that // won't do you much good unless you have fancy queueing going on to make // sure that your priority packets actually get out the door...) The // if_vlan driver implements precisely this for 1Q (and 1p would use the same // encapsulation header, just setting different bits). What's the status of this ? Is it already usable ? Could I use FreeBSD as a multi-VLAN server in a switched ethernet environment ? Do you have a tutorial somewhere ? Jonny -- Joao Carlos Mendes Luis M.Sc.
