FREEBSD between two trunks

[Chris Dionissopoulos]

Try to bridge your virtual (vlan) interfaces, but not any physical.

i.e.
physical nics: fxp0 , fxp1
vlans:
vlanid = 2 , vlan0 in fxp0 , vlan1 in fxp1
vlanid = 3 , vlan2 in fxp0 , vlan3 in fxp1
vlanid = 4 , vlan4 in fxp0 , vlan5 in fxp1
vlanid = 5 , vlan6 in fxp0 , vlan7 in fxp1
vlanid = 6 , vlan8 in fxp0 , vlan9 in fxp1

net.link.ether.bridge.config=vlan0:2,vlan1:2,vlan2:3,vlan3:3,vlan4:4,vlan5:4,vlan6:5,vlan7:5,vlan8:6,vlan9:6
net.link.ether.bridge.enable=1

then make a proper ipfw config like Carlos describes in his post.

Chris.
