I'm not sure about clarifying the article. I just did not see it when I was searching for instructions, so I ended up coming up with my own. I'm attaching what I wrote. It has no examples or images in it, and needs to be cleaned up some. One thing that is different the way I did it was that I used the hardware port as a trunk, then attached the vlan ports to it. So, in my case, red0 is not the underlying port. I change the name in udev to something else, then build the red0 and orange0 on top of it. Like I said, I did not see the vlan article when I was doing my research. It is based mainly on http://forum.ipfire.org/index.php?topic=7242.0 and some conversations with one of our network people here, and some experimentation.
