Hi have an OpenBSD -current installation as of today that I'm trying to get VLANs working on. I have an link from a Cisco 6506 (interface 5/8) to a HP ProCurve 5408XL port B4. The Cisco port 5/8 is configured to the following
set trunk 5/8 on dot1q vlan 301 on the HP ProCurve I have added the VLANs to the switch and ports and it works but not the way I would expect. Port B4 has VLAN 301 tagged and A1 is the port on which the OpenBSD box is connected which is also tagged VLAN 301. On the OpenBSD box I have /etc/hostname.em0 ------------------ up /etc/hostname.vlan301 ------------------ inet 1.2.3.4 255.255.255.0 NONE vlandev em0 description "Uplink" /etc/mygate ------------------ 1.2.3.254 So, here's what I don't expect and maybe my expectations are wrong, but anyways. This configuration doesn't work?!? If I have inet 1.2.3.4 255.255.255.0 NONE description "Uplink" in /etc/hostname.em0 it works. Since the port is tagged on the Cisco and both HP ports I would have thought that you needed to have the VLAN 301 configuration on OpenBSD as well to properly untag the ports? Any help would be extremely useful as I'm trying to deploy this as a VLAN router. I'm sure it's something really simple that I'm missing here. --- James A.
