Can you add all of the VLANs and a regular ethernet interface to a bridge group on your switch? Then, plug the linux box into the un-tagged ethernet interface. If not, you can use linux for the vlan bridge. There should be no problem with ~1000 VLANs. Thanks, Ben -- Ben Greear <[email protected]> Candela Technologies Inc http://www.candelatech.com
