Ok, the whole discussion to date led to how VLAN traffic wasn't being registered by IPFW in my system. I think that it'll probably be too late for a code change to fix my problem, so I'm going to go the route of changing the network configuration. I've rebuilt to 4.10 and.. And I had no luck there (IPFW _really_ doesn't see the traffic now!). On the other hand, I've read about vlan pseudo-dev and goten myself access to the switch's configuration. So tomorrow evening I plan on changing the vlan id used to 3, and then in freebsd, use the following configuration(and I post this to the list to see if anybody knows that this is going to fail) fxp1 --> router (uses ID 2) fxp0 --> switch (uses ID 2, will switch to ID 3) ifconfig vlan1 vlan 3 vlandev fxp0 ifconfig vlan0 vlan 2 vlandev fxp1 sysctl net.link.ether.bridge_cfg=vlan1,vlan0 sysctl net.link.ether.bridge_ipfw=1 Does anybody think this will allow IPFW to see the packets? or that this will outright fail? Thank you everybody, Andrew
