Default Link Aggregation + VLan Trunk
Hello,

Is it possible to make a link aggregation between 2 gigabit Nics for greater throughput and make that channel a vlan trunk so i can use the freebsd box for inter-vlan routing (like a cisco on a stick model in cisco)?

I currently have a trunk on a gigabit nic on which i have 3 vlans
1. User's traffic
2. Security cameras
3. Mail Server/messenger... etc

I loaded vlan as a module and worked like a charm.
ifconfig vlan1 create
ifconfig vlan1 vlan 1 vlandev bge0 - can i use a lagg channel instead of bge0 in the syntax (ex: ifconfig vlan1 vlan 1 vlandev lagg0)? will it work?
Up untill now i only tried link aggregation on cisco switches and linksys so this will be a challenge for me .
