VLAN + RasberyPi

chrisjenx · 2012-07-01 15:57:14

Hi I'm trying to setup openvpn on my RasPi.

I need to set up VLAN's (so I tag frames in and out of the single eth port)

I've been following VLAN - ArchWiki but to no success.
Every-time i try to add I get:

RTNETLINK answers: Operation not supported

By running:

ip link add link eth0 name eth0.10 type vlan id 10

I can only assume the module is not installed/compiled/avaliable?

Any suggestions? modprobe 8021q returns nothing

Cheers,
Chris

Does `lsmod` confirm that the module 8021q is loaded?

Isn't RaspPi ARM based? You're using Arch Linux ARM?

lsmod:

Module                  Size  Used by
ipv6                  221660  10

So no its not loaded... humm.

Yeah RasPi is ARM, I'm using the RasPi build from here: Arch Linux Rasp

So next stupid question, how do i enable/build the VLAN module, I'll happily follow a tut if there is one?

You're more likely to get better answers by asking on the ARM forums; many people here (including myself) have no experience with the ARM port.

In theory, if 8021q isn't built-in to the kernel (check /proc/config.gz) then you should be be able to compile your own kernel using ABS
On a stock arch -lts kernel, 8021q is a module:

$ zgrep 8021Q /proc/config.gz 
CONFIG_VLAN_8021Q=m

fukawi2 is correct: this belongs on the ARM forums... There is a Pi board there

Apologies I should of checked, I thought archlinux was intrinsically arm. My mistake

Cheers all!
