</span> I still don't understand this specific
scenario. What's the difference between MythTV sitting
on two different networks and listening on both, versus
MythTV sitting on one network, and having a routing
process shovel packets from a second network at it? If
MythTV has access to both networks, those networks
cannot be considered isolated.</div>

<div>He and I chatted offline, and I can't really wrap my
mind around his approach to networking. He has some
really weird notion that it's better to put each VLAN on a
separate switch. He says he can't add another VLAN until
he spends $500 for another layer 3 switch because he
doesn't like the idea of having a mix of vlans assigned to
ports on the same switch... even though that's the whole
reason that layer 3 switches were created in the first
place.<br>
<br>
Anyway... I don't think he wanted help, just wanted to
understand why Mythtv only listens on a single IP.<br>

I can't wrap my mind around it either, as enterprise switches handle
all manner of VLANs on the switch.<br>
I run multiple VLAN environments off of my old Cisco Catalyst 4000
with no problem. I did the same at multiple enterprise environments,
even off of multiple Catalyst 6509's. <br>
There is a reason that the supervisor module is as "smart" as it is,
it's so that you can route between each VLAN as needed.<br>
I wonder if he's using VLAN 1...<br>
