[Voyage-linux] Virtual AP's

Can somebody show what a working madwifi VAP /etc/network/interfaces file
looks like.

I have included my test one below something is not working right on it and
my serial cable just broke so I can't troubleshoot very well until the
store  opens again. Any suggestions? Do the VAP's have to run on the same
channel?

Here is what I have so far:
cat etc/network/interfaces
# Used by ifup(8) and ifdown(8). See the interfaces(5) manpage or
# /usr/share/doc/ifupdown/examples for more information.

       up "route add -net 10.2.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 10.2.1.1

       down "route del -net 10.2.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 10.2.1.1
