:Hello,
:
:This updates the drivers equipped to do hardware VLAN support to
:announce the fact. This is already done by em(4) and re(4) and allows
:control of the features via ifconfig. Capabilities were checked against
:FreeBSD and the respective man pages.
:
:Is it worth setting IFCAP_VLAN_MTU in dc(4), fxp(4), sis(4), ste(4) and
:tx(4) as they are documented as supporting long frames for vlan natively?
:
:Regards
:
:Gary
I don't know how this got lost, I noticed it while searching for
the recent vlan thread. Gary posted it in December.
Sephe, are these patches still applicable? It looks like they do.
(this is unrelated to the recent vlan bug thread)
