28.Dt NG_VLAN 4
29.Os
30.Sh NAME
31.Nm ng_vlan
32.Nd IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tagging netgraph node type
33.Sh SYNOPSIS
34.In sys/types.h
35.In netgraph.h
36.In netgraph/ng_vlan.h
37.Sh DESCRIPTION
38The
39.Nm vlan
40node type multiplexes frames tagged according to
41the IEEE 802.1Q standard between different hooks.
42.Pp
43Each node has two special hooks,
44.Va downstream
45and
46.Va nomatch ,
47and an arbitrary number of
48.Dq vlan
49hooks, each associated with a particular VLAN tag.
50.Pp
51An
52.Dv ETHERTYPE_VLAN
53frame received on the
54.Va downstream
55hook with a tag that the node has been configured to filter
56is sent out the corresponding
57.Dq vlan
58hook.
59If it does not match any of the configured tags, or is not of a type
60.Dv ETHERTYPE_VLAN ,
61it is sent out the
62.Va nomatch
63hook.
64If the
65.Va nomatch
66hook is not connected, the packet is dropped.
67.Pp
68An Ethernet frame received on the
69.Va nomatch
70hook is passed unmodified to the
71.Va downstream
72hook.
73.Pp
74An Ethernet frame received on any of the
75.Dq vlan
76hooks is tagged accordingly and sent out the
77.Va downstream
78hook.
79.Sh HOOKS
80This node type supports the following hooks:
81.Bl -tag -width ".Va downstream"
82.It Va downstream
83Typically this hook would be connected to a
84.Xr ng_ether 4
85node, using the
86.Va lower
87hook.
88.It Va nomatch
89Typically this hook would also be connected to an
90.Xr ng_ether 4
91type node using the
92.Va upper
93hook.
94.It Aq Em "any valid name"
95Any other hook name will be accepted and should later be associated with
96a particular tag.
97Typically this hook would be attached to an
98.Xr ng_eiface 4
99type node using the
100.Va ether
101hook.
102.El
103.Sh CONTROL MESSAGES
104This node type supports the generic control messages, plus the following:
105.Bl -tag -width indent
106.It Dv NGM_VLAN_ADD_FILTER Pq Li addfilter
107Associates a hook with the tag.
108.It Dv NGM_VLAN_DEL_FILTER Pq Li delfilter
109Disassociates a hook from the tag.
110.It Dv NGM_VLAN_GET_TABLE Pq Li gettable
111Returns a table of all hook/tag associations.
112.El
113.Sh EXAMPLES
114.Bd -literal
115#!/bin/sh
116
117ETHER_IF=rl0

119ngctl -f- <<EOF
120shutdown ${ETHER_IF}:

124EOF
125
126ngctl mkpeer vlan: eiface vlan123 ether
127ngctl msg vlan: addfilter '{ vlan=123 hook="vlan123" }'
128.Ed
129.Sh SHUTDOWN
130This node shuts down upon receipt of a
131.Dv NGM_SHUTDOWN
132control message, or when all hooks have been disconnected.
