Is the vr interface capable of sending > 1500 byte MTUs? Its not in the vlan(4)
man page. This could be one area to look at, or, if its one of the other causes 
below, you may have issues with big packets.

This looks reasonable. However, your first ifconfig_vr0 line will get 
overridden by the second, and is therefore redundant. Does "ifconfig -a"
confirm that everything gets set up ok?

The "switchport access vlan 254" looks suspect. A trunking port shouldn't
have access port parameters. You're also missing vlan 1. See below...

Well, if you can't ping anything on the subnet, that would assume you can't
reach the default gateway, and therefore, its not surprising you can't
ping anything further upstream :)

>From what I see here, you never allow vlan1 to travel on your trunk. vr0, as an "unvlan'ed" 
interface, will default to vlan1 with dot1q.
