3 edits | Re: Announcing ZeroShell/MLPPP and Linux/MLPPP alphas I've never done anything with VLANs in ZeroShell on the Alix. In theory it should work, but we only got the thing from Candlelight a few days ago, and haven't tried using ZeroShell for anything beyond the basics of MLPPP.
I've got the 2c3, which is a 3-NIC board, so I've got modems plugged into different interfaces.
Taking a brief look now, it seems like you add the VLANs to a NIC on the network page of ZeroShell, and can then add the VLANs as the network interfaces in the PPP config dialog.
You'd then set things up on your managed vlan switch to differentiate the VLANs.
This is, of course, untested by us, since we don't have any managed switches lying around :P
EDIT: The single NIC should be sufficient for almost any number of 5 meg lines, but if you start throwing 16 meg lines at it, you might want to keep it to 5 or less.
EDIT2: It should be noted that under Tomato, pppd crashes when trying to do MLPPP directly on a VLAN. We solve that there by making bridges on the vlans to insulate pppd from the VLANs. If the same problem occurs under ZeroShell, you may need to do the same thing and create bridges on the VLANs in ZeroShell. | |

| Re: Announcing ZeroShell/MLPPP and Linux/MLPPP alphas Hey Guspaz,
Would you be able to put a .deb package on fixppp.org?
I am looking at attempting to get this working with Ubuntu, however compiling from source is not my specialty 
Thanks,
Zacron | |

There might be a .deb one day, but since everything goes in /opt when you extract, we don't really need a package. | |
