You mean like the Compaq NC 3131 Dual port adapter?
Or the Intel Pro/100+ Series of Cards?
http://www.intel.com/network/products/pro100srvr.htm
Intel single ports can be found for around 40$
and the Dual port for both series for around 120$
It is a feature of the 8225x series of Intel chipsets more then anything.
FreeBSD also has support with the intel chipsets for .1q
Both of the above are sitting on my desk and do support .1q
I belive they also do fast etherchannel.
Now i just need a switch that supports it. >Stupid 3com 3000 has vlans, but
i guess they are 3com proprietary, cant get them to link to anything else
but 3com<

Subject: 802.1Q support on a PCI Ethernet Card?
Wouldn't it be nice if someone came out with a NIC card for a PC that would
support 802.1Q and allow you to put multiple IP addresses on one computer.
This would be so useful for testing, since one PC connected via trunk to a
switch could simulate multiple machines... you could do pings between one
ethernet subinterface to another through a test network.
If something like this (or close) is available, please let me know... I'd
buy a dozen.
