Or, alternatively (and ghettotastic but practical), if you've got ports
to spare and it's not a whole lot of VLANs you need to rewrite, just
physically bridge and connect an untagged port in one of the VLANs you'd
like to rewrite with an untagged port in the new VLAN. It's not pretty
and a pain in the neck to have to do it that way, but can get the job
done if needed. It's about time Foundry started including a CLI-based
solution though..

Cheers,
