Let me try to explain in more details. I'd like to create the following configuration: physicalInterface => vlanInterface <=> bridge <=> etherstub <=> VirutalInterfaces for zones In such way I'd like to achieve the following: each zone has exclusive ip stack and multiple zones can be in one vlan, which is seen from outside. It seems, that most of our tasks can be solved with usual configuration (shared ip stack), but on our FreeBSD hosts such configuration (exclusive ip stack + bridge per vlan) is quite convinient. I was suprised that I can't achive similar configuration on Solaris host. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ networking-discuss mailing list networking-discuss@opensolaris.org
