I don't see any features in YaST that will let me configure the card to be on separate vlans. I'm using the standard way of configuration, am I not seeing something there to configure vlans with YaST?
I think you're a bit confused here.
Not really.
A VLAN is configured in a switch, so that some ports belong to one VLAN or another. The packets are tagged, so that other switches can recognize which VLAN is the destination.
Indeed. However it's perfectly possible to set up a jumbo-frame capable NIC with vlans under linux, using vconfig. Doing it manually does have a rather steep learning curve though. I spent some time tinkering with it a couple of years ago, and I did eventually get a test setup working. Sadly I've all but completely forgotten the hows and whys. What the OP is asking about is how to do it through YaST.
I don't believe you can do that in Yast.
Me neither, but it *would* be a nice addition.
What it does support, is multiple IP addresses, so that a NIC can be in different sub nets on the same physical network. Is that what you're referring to?
No. That's something else. /jon -- YMMV -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
