https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=270942 Bug ID: 270942 Summary: FreeBSD Handbook section on VLANs example doesn't up the parent interface Product: Documentation Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: Website Assignee: doc@FreeBSD.org Reporter: leres@freebsd.org I haven't used VLANs with FreeBSD in a bit so I check the handbook to see how to do it. This is the example that is provided: vlans_em0="5" ifconfig_em0_5="inet 192.168.20.20/24" (Which manes use of network.subr helper sh code.) However when I did something similar it didn't work. I eventually figured out my problem was that the parent interface was down; once I brought it up things start working. Would it be reasonable to add: ifconfig_em0="up" to the handbook example? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.home | help
