Just FYI - Just like Suns, FreeBSD boxen running our current VLAN implementation will appear on all VLANs with the MAC address of the parent ethernet device. I've not noticed any problems with the ARP code, aside from my switch forwarding an occasional stray untagged packet to the parent device. I get a printf() about someone using my IP address (0.0.0.0). I'm a little confused on you comment about per-VLAN routing tables. VLANs operate at layer-2, and routing is a layer 3 decision, right? Can you please explain where this knowledge would be important? - Steve -- C. Stephen Gunn URL: http://www.waterspout.com/ WaterSpout Communications, Inc.
