I'd like to set up 80211q vlan tagging on a couple of v240's I just
built with Solaris 10 6/06. I've created a link aggregation out of
bge0 and bge1. Now I've been asked to set it up to be able to access a
private management network. I hate to chew up another bge port and a
router port just for this. The Sol 10 IP Services manual specifically
says that VLANs are supported only on ce, bge, xge and e1000g interface
types. Since aggr interfaces aren't named, I'm wondering if that means
I'm out of luck...

Does anyone know for sure?

Pretty much bge's dont support 802.1ad you can easilly give it a try and see
for yourself.

Best luck!

802.1ad (link aggregation) is already configured and working on these
machines. I'm interesting in knowing if I can now throw 802.1Q (VLAN
tagging) into the mix.

Nevermind. All set. I had the network guy turn on vlan tagging for
the two router ports I'm using and then just replumbed the interface
from aggr1 to aggr123001 and it worked just fine. The ports actually
already had a VLAN assigned to them on the router, but it was not being
enforced. He changed my ports to enforce the vlan and after I plumbed
the new VLAN aggr interface it started working immediately.

Must be a change since last year when I had to do the same and end up buying
ce's for my server.
