I'm finally on the receiving end of a vlan problem :)

I want to be able to use multiple VLANs with the same MAC
addr through an SMC switch.  But, it disables traffic
because it thinks we have a loop or something like that.

I know there is a way to disable this on (most?) cisco
switches, and I'm hoping it can be done on SMC as well.

If anyone knows the cisco and/or SMC methods of letting
multiple VLAN devices with the same MAC communicate, please
let me know.

For what it's worth, Netgear switches work out of the box...

Thanks,
Ben
