most of my customers are ethernet connected, and some customers share an interface. i got into this before it was cheap to do 802.11q switching, so my billing system needed to deal with multiple customers on a single ethernet.

Thats irrelevant; look at the counters on the customers switch-port. Doesn't matter what VLAN (or none) they are on.

ah, well, again, i was using multiport bsd implementations, not switches.

as it stands, i'm fairly content using the cache flow from the cisco's.

one day, i might actually install a full 802.11q compliant switching framework, but, well, not today.

Come on, even D-Link is making switches with 802.1q... http://www.dlink.com/products/switches/des6000/ Go search your couch for loose change. -- Richard A Steenbergen <ras@e-gerbil.net> http://www.e-gerbil.net/ras PGP Key ID: 0x138EA177 (67 29 D7 BC E8 18 3E DA B2 46 B3 D8 14 36 FE B6)
