A quick question about adding VLANs to a FW-1.

Currently I'm not using any VLAN on a FW-1 (SPLAT R54), but I plan to add 1 or 
two more networks to the firewall. Since I got a HP ProCurve Switch connected 
to the FW, I which to set up a VLAN interface on one or two of the 
interfaces.

Today, eth0 has the address 194.xxx.xxx.xxx/28. I whish to add a second 
network 192.168.1.0/24 to the same interface. Do I have to remove the first 
interface before I add the two VLANs (194.xxx.xxx.xxx/28 and 192.168.1.0/24) 
to the interface?

I'm using a https interface from a host on eth0 to administrate the firewall. 
I guess that my session to the firewall will get killed if I add a VLAN to 
the same interface? In that case I suppose I have to do this operation from a 
host on one of the other interfaces (the FW itself has no screen or 
keyboard)?

Thanks in advance...
