I'm having trouble getting VLANs to work on a 4.1-RELEASE system and
would appreciate any advice from those who have it running. (If I'm able
to get a decent understanding of the issues involved, I may even tackle
writing a section for the Handbook on VLANs.)
Here's the setup. The physical device is fxp0. I have not applied any
patches to the physical driver for larger MTUs.
If I don't ifconfig fxp0 and try to go straight to an ifconfig of vlan0,
the kernel panics. (I haven't looked at why yet, but probably could if
somebody thought it'd help.)
Interestingly, it also seems to panic if I ifconfig vlan1 before
I configure vlan0.
If I do ifconfig fxp0 first and then ifconfig vlan0 on top of it, I get
a booted system. However, arp issues lots of warning messages about
packets arriving on fxp0 when they should be on vlan0 and I can't ping
the box.
If you have advice or even just have running VLANs on a fairly stock 4.x
system, I'd love to see a snippet of your rc.conf or the hardwired
ifconfig commands you may be using.
Thanks,
Bob
