Is it possible to do 802.1Q VLAN tagging of ethernet frames on a Linux router based on the target host IP but without using vconfig/802.1Q kernel module and routing through its virtual interface(s). Ideally, I would construct the table like this: IP MAC VLAN-ID 1.1.1.1 aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff 50 1.1.1.2 aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:fe 51 ....... ................. .. and then somehow tag the ethernet frame destined to the 1.1.1.2, i.e. aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:fe with 51. This is necessary for switch trunking port on the switch to work properly. I don''t like vconfig approach because of the administrative burden associated with the handling of 50+ VLAN virtual interfaces on the level 3 (routing and firewalling). My problem is actually on the level 2 and I want to keep it there. Any idea or hint would be greatly appreciated. thanks, Kresimir _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@mailman.ds9a.nl http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
