RE: linux box as vlan router :::: fixed

Able to see vlan tagged pkt. When I searched thru the mail archived I
came to know that I will not be able to see the vlan tagged pkt as intel
nic driver strips off the tag as pkt comes to the virtual interface on
the receive side. On sending side I hope ethereal captures pkt before we
apply tag to the pkt. I hope I'm right :)


Thanks to all.

Setup 1a described there makes the Linux system a VLAN router. Note
however that dhcpd will not function properly unless you add lines:

vconfig set_flag eth1.2 1
vconfig set_flag eth1.3 1

to the box A configuration, before starting dhcpd.
