VLAN / Bridged Setup Dependencies
- apt install bridge-utils
- apt-get install vlan
- With the package installed you can now load the module: modprobe 8021q && echo "8021q" >> /etc/modules
- With the 802.1q module loaded into the kernel we need to determine what the interfaces are called: ls /sys/class/net
- Determine whether the 802.1q VLAN module is loaded: lsmod | grep 8021q
- ls /sys/class/net to determine the network interface name
- nano /etc/resolv.conf check Debian name servers are set
