Needs \ before each -, e.g. \-s and \-\-server.

I don't want to encourage people to use the "fake bridge" feature, so
I'd rather use "add-port vlan-br vlan-br tag=10" instead of the middle

Missing \ here too.

I think that this manpage should be section 8, not section 1, by the
way.

This looks good, please push it when you are ready.
