Hi Chris, We have Cisco routers and HP 4000 switches, but we don't use VLANs. I have read and researched this information for HP 4000 before for future use. What M.C. van den Bovenkamp said about the port being assigned to both VLANs with them marked as tagged it accurate. I haven't tried this but i'm pretty sure it will work. The HP 4000 switch use the 802.1q standard for VLAN tagging.

Look at ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/networking/software/59692320.pdf (the docs for the 4000M), especially page 6-62 & up. Basically, they just have to assign the same port to both VLANs and make them both 'tagged'. That should work. (Note, I haven't seen a Procurve in my life. If I could find this in roughly a minute or so...) Regards, Marco.
