Then you can use ifconfig to set your virtual vlan interfaces bound to the physical one/s. Assume you have xl0 physical interface and you want to setup 2 vlans on it (VLAN ID 1, VLAN ID 2), you configure interfaces with: ifconfig vlan0 inet 10.0.0.1 netmask 0xffffff00 vlan 2 vlandev xl0 and ifconfig vlan1 inet 10.0.1.1 netmask 0xffffff00 vlan 3 vlandev xl0 And you'll be set. Just remember to set up your network switch accordingly (e.g. allowing those vlan tags on the port). As for the link0 flag the ifconfig(8) manpage talks about, you should set it if your card supports vlan tags on its own, so the physical interface driver will do the thing. I think just Alteon ti(4) driver supports it.
