      Hello,

      Given the following example, if I set br0.200 to promiscuous mode, does that set the parent interface AND br0.100 to promiscuous mode?

      Thank you for your time…

      --jason

      br0 = parent interface
      br0.100 = lan
      br0.200 = dmz

        I got my answer:

        the parent interface goes into promiscuous mode, the other vlans do not.

          Isn't br0 a bridge interface, can you put a bridge interface into promiscuous mode as its a group of interfaces.

            I think you are correct, but I chose a random name for my example as if it were a plain ethernet port.

            Thanks for your input!
