Yes Michael..It does..At least that's what looks like to me..I did specify
all the VLANs and the native vlan as well..the utlity then created a network
connection corresponding to each VLAN specified ( I see almost 20 network
connections in my taskbar ;-)
I also specified the maximum specified frame size which was 9014 bytes...but
no luck.. I am actually trying to understand how the physical connections
should be.. is what I mentioned in my email above correct ??
