Hy guys, let see if any of you can help me with this problem. I'm trying to add a workstation to a VLAN, so I have readed the guides and I
1) Did a patch to the kernel to be able to use 8021q 2) recompiled and installed the new kernel So now I should be able to add this workstation with linux to my vlan. But the problem is that I can not make a ping to my bridge/router. As it is sayd in the guide of cisco "LINUX VLAN + Cisco Howto" that you can find in www.candelatech.com/~greear/vlan/cisco_howto.html first you have to move everything to vlans, so you don't set ip address to the real interfaces, but set vlan interfaces. So to set eth0 with no ip I did : ifconfig eth0 0.0.0.0 up Then I wanted to add a vlan to this workstation so I went to my vlan directory and with the comand vconfig : vconfig add eth0 10 This should create a device called vlan0010 but it creates a device called eth0.10. So now Linux should think that eth0.10 is just another network device, so I can configure it like any other. What I did was ifconfig eth0.10 192.168.1.3 broadcast 192.168.1.255 netmask 255.255.255.0 So if you trust the guide the configuration is over and it should work. The problem is that, when I try to make a ping to the interface conected to this workstation in the bridge I don't receive anything. Do any of you know why?
