Hi all,
The PREVIOUS picture was
---------------------------------
// SW01 //
--------------------------------
| |

---------- -----------
// FW1// // FW2 //
------------ -------------
| |
| |
---------------------------------
// SW02 //
---------------------------------
|
|
my network
Where:
* sw01 and sw02 are Dlink switches with RSTP activated
* fw1 and fw2 are OpenBSD 4.2 boxes with PF active and working in
bridge mode; RSTP is also active
This configuration has been working perfectly for months.
The PRESENT picture is:
------------------------ ---------------
// SW01 // --- HSRP link --- // SW02 //
----------------------- ---------------

// FW1// // FW2 //

---------------------------------
// SW03 //

my network
Where:
* sw01 and sw02 are Cisco 45xx switches splitted in several VLANs and
using HSRP mode for redundancy with RSTP activated
* sw03 is a Dlink switch with RSTP activated
* fw1 and fw2 are OpenBSD 4.2 boxes with PF active and working in
bridge mode; RSTP is also active
In the picture, we must be aware that whe're in VLAN 10; because of
that, fw01 and fw02 are inserted in VLAN 10 cisco's ports.
The main goal is to repeat the previous scenario, so if fw1 goes down,
the RSTP should redirect the traffic through sw02 and fw02.
My questions are
?Should I consider the VLAN in bridge setup?
?Should I consider the VLAN in PF setup?
It seems that tcpdump(1) in base doesn't support 'vlan' primitives.
?How can I see the VLAN traffic to debug the scenario?
