sending vlan tagged packets from ethernet port
Here is my scenario

I want to send packets on ethernet port having vlan tag 1600.
At the other end is a switch having gateway 172.16.116.1 and accepting vlan tagged packets.
I tried
Quote:
# modprobe 8021q
# vconfig add p5p1 1600
Added VLAN with VID == 1600 to IF - : p5p1:-
# ifconfig p5p1.1600 172.16.116.2
# route -n

I connected ethernet cable (end fed to switch) to another laptop running wireshark and saw that there were arp broadcast packets 'who has 192.168.1.1 ? tell 192.168.1.200' from mac 6c:3b:e5:22:a9:19
So , it seems that my desktop is not sending vlan tagged packets as the default gateway is associated with p5p1 instead of p5p1.1600.
BTW , I gave 192.x.x.x IP to p5p1 in hope that if destination ip is 172.16.x.x , that interface p5p1 won't be used.
Could be that p5p1.1600 is a sub-interface of p5p1 , so I also tried above with static IP 172.16.116.3 to p5p1 , still no success in pinging 172.16.116.1 .
How can I solve this ?
Please , let me know if any further details are required.
Thanks.
PS: If you have 2 linux PC's , one having wireshark then connect them together and verify that whether other is sending vlan tagged packets.That will be so useful to me. |
