Well, thats a break through :-) If I understand you correctly, the destination host actually receives the ARP packet and responds with a packet. That should means that the outgoing DSA tagging is working. Although I'm not sure about the incomming... >> My understanding is that this should work via the VLAN map? I think that the "VLAN map/table" has gotten a wrong name as it does not really determine the VLANs, it only says who can talk to whom. The switch does support a real vlan setup, but its deactivated in Lennerts driver, as I guess he wants Linux to handle the VLANs. (I use the real VLAN setup extensively in my driver). >> I checked that setup and it looks OK. I have also checked the different registers setting, and things looks quite alright. Although I'm missing the register datasheets for the 6131 chip, I found that I only have part 1 of 3 crap... I did find that the 6095 and 6097 does differ in the way DSA handling is done, as the 6097 supports Ethertype DSA and 6095 don't. But the 6131 driver looks like it does the right thing for the 6095. >> Any ideas where this might be going wrong? Is lan1.1 up and have you given it an IP address? (could I get a 'ifconfig' output?)
