We do have code to set vlan id, so,  we can set vlanid using iscsiadm

Also, the Emulex BIOS allows for setting of vlan id.

Thanks

Subject: Re: iscsistart VLAN ID ??

If you are using be2iscsi, then you would not use ibft. If you are using a 
custom boot script then you need be2iscsi and iscsi_boot_sysfs only.
If you are using a distro boot script then it might be more general and loading 
ibft (loading ibft loads iscsi_boot_sysfs) because other drivers need it.

I think for be2iscsi boot, there is no code to get the vlan id and then pass 
that down to the driver. However, I think be2iscsi might store the vlan info in 
firmware like it does with the other net info. So as long as the vlan id did 
not change then you are ok. Jay, is that correct?
