Thanks Frank. This looks almost exactly what I was looking for, but
the VLANs would be switched around: VID 10 would come through tagged
(i.e. equipment mgmt VID) and VID 100/101 (i.e. customer VID) would
come through untagged.
Is this only on the newer switches? I seem to remember I had to carry
the native vlan throughout the uplinks on an older 3550.
Thanks,
Chris
