Re: using multiple interfaces for same Network Card

Yes, i want to use them as vlan interface, Does any one has used *vlandev*,
after seen this
http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/howto-configure-freebsd-vlans-with-ifconfig-command/i
tried to use it as

ifconfig vlan11  create 10.10.11.1  255.255.255.0 vlan 11  vlandev arge0
ifconfig vlan12  create 10.10.12.1  255.255.255.0 vlan 12  vlandev arge0
ifconfig vlan13  create 10.10.13.1  255.255.255.0 vlan 13  vlandev arge0
ifconfig vlan14  create 10.10.14.1  255.255.255.0 vlan 14  vlandev arge0

i was expecting that it will create interfaces which will work under arge0,
and will able to ping from any pc, Does any one have used it, kindly guide
me about it

Thanks
