+CONFIG_VLAN_8021Q
+ Select this and you will be able to create 802.1Q VLAN interfaces on your
+ ethernet interfaces. 802.1Q VLAN supports almost everything a regular
+ ethernet interface does, including firewalling, bridging, and of course
+ IP traffic. You will need the 'vconfig' tool from the VLAN project in

+ you can safely say 'N'.
