In a nutshell, a VLAN capabale router is one with a FastEthernet port that 
can be configured for ISL or 802.q encapsulation which would connect to the 
trunk port of a switch.  It would then be able to receive packets from the 
switch and be able to tell to which VLAN each packet belongs to eventhough 
all packets are being received through the same physical interface.  It 
would also be needed to route between VLANs on the same switch.
