Heya - not wishing to argue, but I'm really telling the truth.

vlan0 is 192.168.200.1/24 and the workstation is at 192.168.200.2

All I can think of is more Nokia weirdness.  This is an IP330 with three
on-board NICs.

And he said that's the only way it *works*?  Due to the FreeBSD + 
promisc bug with VLAN's, tcpdumping any vlanX interface or the parent 
interface should kill all network activity on all VLAN's.  Does on every 
box I've tried, and others have reported the same.
