Hi,

yesterday i have checkt the default setup for vlan.
I don't understand what is wrong!

So what I've done (on clean green & red systemnetwork setting):

Step one:
###############################
# /var/ipfire/ethernet/vlans
( see this for more details: http://wiki.ipfire.org/de/optimization/vlan/start#vlan_hw-zuweisung)

# reboot - ifconfig and ip link show said to me: nothing! no blue or orange interface generated.

Step two:
###############################
# check autostart for rc3.d for this script:
http://git.ipfire.org/?p=ipfire-2.x.git;a=blob;f=src/initscripts/init.d/network-vlans;h=2fdfe9ebbcf48391fabef127689c4f5313a483df;hb=HEAD#l34

I dont see a symlink from rc3.d/ to ../init.d/network-vlans - network-vlans captured the vlans-config from here /var/ipfire/ethernet/vlans. Also, i created a S18rule with symlink to ../init.d/network-vlans.

# reboot - ifconfig and ip link show said to me: nothing! no blue or orange interface generated.

Then rm S18rule and added S22rule with the same symlink-path

# reboot - ifconfig and ip link show said to me: nothing! no blue or orange interface generated.

My question, what for a configuration is required for this script: http://wiki.ipfire.org/de/optimization/vlan/start#vlan_netzwerkkonfiguration ? I have testet too with default settings in this file - did not matter no functional.

What can I do? Please help me!

BG, Thomas
