Examine the NIC instances the driver created for each VLAN. The Intel ProSet driver creates a new instance of the physical NIC that the VLAN is assigned to. It will create a new NIC instance for each VLAN assigned. The new NIC VLAN instance assumes all the parameters of the parent NIC instance, including jumbo frame settings; however, the new VLAN NIC is created with its own name, interface index, and interface description.
