This of course depends on it being supported by your switch, for Cisco, see http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/switches/ps628/products_configuration_guide_chapter09186a00800d84c2.html#xtocid3 for example. You simply enable it on all your ports, and leave all the users on the same VLAN. This would also get around any issues with VLANs on the em driver. Hope that's of some help. On a sidenote, you shouldn't have any issues pushing 100mbit through that system with good cards like Intels. I have a Celeron 1.3 here that routes 100mbit traffic no problem. Regards, Richard Tector
