SO...ether4 is bridged to ether1 and will pass traffic entering on ether1 (which will not be tagged, but will be from VLAN1)? > Basically e2, e3, and e4 are single-vlan only untagged ports on VLANs 2, > 3, and 1 respectively, while e1 is a trunk with VLANs 2 & 3 tagged, but > VLAN 1 untagged I'm a little confused on a couple of points (asked for clarification above). If I DO understand what I think you are asking, then it should be possible (at least part of it). > Anyone done anything like this? The challenge is that we need to do > this bridged, not routed - kinda like using a switch. I did some CRAZY vlan work for Centurytel about 2 years ago.
