What's the current status of 802.1Q VLAN support in -STABLE?  I'm rapidly
heading towards an impass -- FreeBSD, or Cisco?  :)  I saw a few messages
about this about 4-6 weeks ago, and they kind of died after that -- last
mod date of /usr/src/sys/net/*vlan* is Dec. 27 on my test box.....

If the decision is that FBSD is NOT "really ready" to support the 802.1Q
stuff now, I'll buy the $3K Cisco router (and associated cards & "Plus"
software packages), then start working on the support so I don't have to
buy the 2nd & 3rd routers in about three months... :)  I could do the
routing with multiple NICs in the FBSD box, but with the way I have to
break apart this network, I'm going to run out of PCI slots pretty
quickly....

Input?

Thanks - Mike
