If i run ethtool on a vlan interface, does it show layer 1 or layer 2
"link"?

IIRC ciscos will report "line proto down" if layer 1 is up but layer 2/vlan
is down. How is the status of layer 2 determined?

FastEthernet0/0 is administratively down, line protocol is down (disabled)

line protocol is layer 2
