Hi Allan,
It looks like all of the options in <SystemConfiguration/
SCNetworkConfiguration.h> are 10.5 and later?
Were VLANs available in earlier verisons of Mac OS X? Are there
more primitive interfaces that would work with older versions of Mac
OS X?
It looks like the following IOCTL might work with lower level BSD
interfaces:
sys/sockio.h:#define SIOCGETVLAN SIOCGIFVLAN
Is that true? Was this call available on earlier versions of Mac OS
X?
VLAN support was added in 10.3. The BSD ioctl's were available from
early on but the first set of "public" APIs to manage the "persistent"
VLAN configuration wasn't introduced until 10.5.
