You mean this section: /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/S18network-vlan ?
I have tested VLAN to configurate only in /var/ipfire/ethernet/vlans. There have no createt the Interfaces for blue & orange.
Therefore I have made ​​it so.

I can remind me to the statement. But it works only once.
The BLUE_PARENT_DEV="green0" and in /var/ipfire/ethernet/settings delegate to BLUE_DEV=green0.300, i can test it with blue0.300. let's see what happens here. :) I give a statement when testet.
