There's no real bug here, it's just a misunderstanding. If you setup "vlan1" with a vlan ID of 1 then OpenBSD will tag the packets and expect them to be tagged.
Many switches expect vlan ID 1 to be untagged. To match this behavior in OpenBSD, put the IP address on the parent interface and not on a (tagged) vlan interface. Alternately, you can tell the switch that untagged traffic is part of some other vlan. Cisco calls it 'native vlan' and you can change it. I dunno what other switch vendors call it. Brian A.
