Arty, One of our z/VM support guys and I experimented with IEEE VLAN support on VSWITCH earlier this year. What we wound up doing was _not_ telling the Linux guest that there was any 802.1q trunking going on. It was all done with the VSWITCH configuration. Each guest was given a specific VLAN number to use (no VLAN=any for anyone), and everything worked fine.

Works great. Yesterday, I tried to set up another guest with the same VLAN support (same VLAN, too). The packets exit the vlan interface and hit the base interface, then exit to the VSWITCH. Looks fine. Packets then arrive from the VSWITCH to the base interface, but they never make it to the vlan interface. I am pretty sure that I have set everything up to use vlan-tagged frames only. The VSWITCH is set up correctly, and the guest has appropriate GRANTs defined. I'm a little puzzled at this point. Any ideas?
