[VLAN] NEWBIE: RH Linux and ProCurve VLAN Setup

> Some HP procurves only support 30 VLANS tagged from 0-30. Silly but true.

Not quite true.  Some switches limit you to 30 VLANs, but anything vaguely
recent will allow the full range of tags to be used.  Note, btw, that some 
have one forwarding table per switch while others have separate ones for 
each VLAN.

The old version of the wireless access point firmware did have some odd 
VLAN restrictions, so we didn't ever use them there.  The latest firmware 
does things sanely.
