VLAN Interfaces on Solaris 8

[daz306td]

Unfortunatly we still have some Solaris 8 boxes still active and there is a requirement to add VLAN interfaces.

This I have previoulsy done in solaris 10 simply plumbing the interface "ifconfig qfe2003 plumb" for an example.

Going back to Solaris 8.....

I have installed the vlan packages (SUNWvld & SUNWvldu), and attempted to plumb the interface:

# ifconfig qfe2003 plumb
ifconfig: SIOCSLIFNAME for ip: qfe2003: no such interface

....Has anyone any experience with plumbing VLAN interfaces on Solaris 8? Any guides/how to's?

Thanks in advance

Your syntax is correct but I think the interface name should be qfe0 or qfe1.
