to specify a vif ethernet interface, its <physical interface>.<vlan id> ie: for vlan 201 on interfce eth2, you'd say eth2.201
You're going to have a problem with dhcp on a vif, as I found out. see bug 2447 for two possible workarounds.. https://bugzilla.vyatta.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2447 do one of those workarounds, and it will work fine. it wont ask for an interface, you just define the subnet to hand out. ------------------ Aubrey Wells Senior Engineer Shelton | Johns Technology Group 404.478.2790 www.sheltonjohns.com On Nov 20, 2007, at 4:04 PM, Rodrigo Romero III wrote: > This scenario is very uncommon.
