[CLUE-Tech] What is 802.1q from cisco?

[Art Reisman]

Thanks sorry I should have been more specific, I have
seen the basic lit,I was wondering who was using it.

I have a potential user that was asking if the Linux
Bridge would work with it. In any case he is going to
buy my $25 CD just to test it. So I should know if he
follows through. 

Thanks
