[Xorp-users] VLAN Interfaces

Well, I did successfully fix the vlan naming, so now it set's the name type to dev.vid, and puts the appropriate entries in /proc/net/vlan/config, and creates the appropriate per interface files.

It still has the IP address problem. I suspect somewhere there is another reference to it as vlan.vid, but I don't quite understand this code.

error:
Failed to configure address because of device not found: IfConfigSetNetlinkSocket::add_addr:
check_nl_req: Cannot add address '1.1.1.1' on interface 'eth1' vif 'eth1.100': AF_NETLINK NLMSG_ERROR message: No such device

The printing of the error uses strings such as 'eth1.100' as the device, but since I don't know how NL works I don't know that it is the ACTUAL device it's polling/modifying. 


So now I'm stuck.

Thanks!
