If the computer runs Linux, just use vconfig to add the right VLANs
to the right physical interface and then configure the VLAN
interfaces like any other interface. The names are e.g. eth0.103
for VLAN 103 on eth0. Add them manually first and check that
everything works, then save the configuration in whatever way is
appropriate for your distribution.

If the computer runs some other OS, I'm afraid you're on the wrong
mailing list.
