The DNS-323 can support 802.1q vlans/frame tagging. The native kernel does not support this, however. To make it work, you must load an 8021q.ko kernel module into your kernel. You should have a chroot debian install to accomplish this. I will spare you the trouble of having to compile the module yourself. | The DNS-323 can support 802.1q vlans/frame tagging.

One reason you may want to do this is that you want to configure jumbo frames for (potentially) faster DNS-323 performance, but don't want to/can't activate jumbo frames on your primary network because some devices don't support it. (Jumbo frames require a Gigabit switch, but not all Gigabit switches and NIC's support jumbo frames) | One reason you may want to do this is that you want to configure jumbo frames for (potentially) faster DNS-323 performance, but don't want to/can't activate jumbo frames on your primary network because some devices don't support it.
