Hi if you are not in a mood for a rant please skip ... other wise ...
i have spent hours / days even trying to figureout linux bridges with linux-aware-bridge... come to find out people programming linux's stack didnt know jack shit about vlans it seems... now we are apparently stuck with TWO pvid definitions... PRIVATE vlan ids ... wich are defined in device and are or "should" be stripped when leaving the device...(and a compleatly different tagging mechanism than "public vlans" ) and PRIMARY vlan id... both using the acronym PVID... with compleatly DIFFERENT roles and meaning. apparently... they where not content with the usual networking nomenclature "native" .... linux is great... but really you couldn't spend 5 minutes checking that the term wasn't used prior ? now its all a kabloowy mess. :-/ << not happy face.
/end rant.
