that's hilarious. it's essentially a physical vlan. it could be of use for anything that doesn't support vlans directly, and it'd be a lot cheaper than running a switch to do the tagging/untagging.
- myself248 4y agoI've done exactly that, when I couldn't be arsed to figure out QinQ on a wrt54g which already uses VLAN tagging internally between the SOC and the switch ASIC. Just used two physical ports and a splitting scheme just like the above. The trick would be doing it with _one_ physical port on a suitably malleable GigE-equipped device.
