Hello list

I have the following configuration

                           +--- vlan0|------------
--- em0 ---+               +--- vlan1|
           +--- trunk0 ----+--- vlan2|  OpenBSD 3.8
--- em1 ---+               +--- vlan3|
                           +--- vlan4|------------


And I have the following question.

I can set higher MTU on em0, em1 an the vlans and it was ok before I configured the trunk. The vlans were assigned to physical interfaces separately before. Now I'm unable to set higher MTU on trunk0 and also I get:

vlan0: initialized with non-standard mtu 1496 (parent trunk0)
vlan1: initialized with non-standard mtu 1496 (parent trunk0)
vlan2: initialized with non-standard mtu 1496 (parent trunk0)
vlan3: initialized with non-standard mtu 1496 (parent trunk0)
vlan4: initialized with non-standard mtu 1496 (parent trunk0)

every time I initialize my network. However, it is still working.

Is there a problem of setting higher MTUs on trunk interfaces?

Another question. I was wondering how should I configure PF.
I am filtering traffic now on vlan interfaces and trunk0 interface, because if I don't pass packets on the trunk interface, all traffic will be blocked although I pass it on vlan ifs. I don't have any rule regarding the physical ifs (em0 em1) in pf.conf.

If I set skip on trunk0, is it still possible to filter on vlans?
Or do you have any other suggestion? I need to filter only on the vlan interfaces.


Thank you
