I appreciate your urge to minimize hardware requirements, but adding vlans
into the mix implies that everything can work on a vlan, and I've had enormous
troubles with vlans and ipv6 in general, and little faith in the
usb-ethernet devices
(already borne out by needing a new kernel for them to even work), and
getting vlans to work involves getting all the devices to come up properly
on the right vlans.

so at the moment it adds risk and complexity to go with vlans. Also I'm not
sure how well that will work with the trunking to the wireshark box.

I'm not objecting to trying, but if ONE MORE REQUIREMENT in addition
to the vlan concept gets added to this demo I'm going to run screaming
from the country. I'd like to have totally working demo by tuesday,
and that involves working the weekend.

So far as I know the drop dead date for packing up will be thursday,
yes?

I'm heading into the office now.

Is there going to be a poster? Literature? anything like that? What is
the 30 second pitch? the 5 minute pitch? How does one explain
the benefits of sd-cpe? (none of this is my problem, but if I can
get you guys focused on something other than making the demo
ever more complex and having the demo setup match your
conception of the pitch, it would be good)
