Hello, actually this a very interseting feature ;-). It basically means that you can connect the trunkport of a switch (which must support 802.1Q VLAN-Tagging) to your Firewall. Your Firewall will "see" each VLAN which is on that switch as a virtual interface. Communication between those VLANs will be possible and checked against the rulebase. --Joerg http://www.firewalls-illustriert.de -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: brian dell [mailto:[email protected]] Gesendet: Freitag, 28.
