Has anyone setup a single NIC with more than 1 VLAN on the above Microsoft desktop operating systems.
The VLANS need to be tagged. The NICS used are mainly Realtek PCIe, and do have VLAN support.
I did try this on XP with an Intel utility for the Intel Pro GT PCI gigabit cards, but without much success. I have done this on Centos, but would like to be able to do it on the Realtek NICs that support it on the Microsoft operating systems. I have searched Realtek, Microsoft, and Google. I also searched this forum back to Jan 2009.
If this cant be done on XP that's not much of a Problem. I would like to be able to do this on Vista Business and Win 7 Pro though.
I have had many situations recently where the laptop having connections to at least 2 wired networks would be very helpful. For example accessing 2 or 3 separate wired networks, or setting a soft phone to use a different network to the one used for data. The laptops in question do not have the port to add a NIC on a PCMCIA card. Wireless is not really an option as there is no wireless connection to networks I need to access.
I can do this from a Centos desktop machine, but that will unavailable shortly.
