Where I work, we are successfully using several NetBSD systems 
as firewalls.
Now we are planning a firewall with more than 4 connected networks
and we'd like to implement this with a trunk connection from one 
physical network interface to a cisco switch, carrying several 
802.1q VLANs and IPFilter filtering between them.

The machines will most likely be Supermicro systems with 
Intel i82546EB NICs (wm driver).

While I'm sure, that this "should work", I am interested in
reports from people who actually did ipfilter between VLANs.
I don't want to buy the hardware and then find out, there is a 
subtle limitation or buglet nobody has time to fix.
(me not beeing capable of fixing kernel things myself)

I also guess, I'd have to run NetBSD 2.0 on it, wouldn't I?

Thanks very much for your feedback

Chris
