Take a look at http://www.jonny.eng.br/tese/.  The last two documents
are draft standards for 802.1Q and 802.1p.

// Nothing -- just stick on the right header and go.  (Of course, that
// won't do you much good unless you have fancy queueing going on to make
// sure that your priority packets actually get out the door...)  The
// if_vlan driver implements precisely this for 1Q (and 1p would use the same
// encapsulation header, just setting different bits).

What's the status of this ?  Is it already usable ?  Could I use
FreeBSD as a multi-VLAN server in a switched ethernet environment ?
Do you have a tutorial somewhere ?
