Thanks stephen.
Maybe too late, but wanted to add a note.
I would have loved to have the default output print vlan ranges if the
iproute2 version is capable and is talking to the kernel which has vlan
range support. The netlink msg handling takes care of back ward
compatibility.
I think, I was being too cautious to not break users who might be doing
screen scraping.
In general should i be too worried about breaking such users ?.
If not, I would love to resubmit the patch to make the default output
print ranges.
