I think that this would work only for one Vlan.
What if I have more than one Vlan. My testbed Setup is the following:


                VM1
                   |
eth0  \        |
                 br0 -----------DEST
eth1  /        |
                   |
                 VM2

It's a ring topology where i want:
 -VLAN1 : eth0-VM1
 -VLAN2 : eth1-VM2
 -VLAN3 : VM1-DEST
 -VLAN4 : VM2-DEST

Basically i want to send packets from eth0 or eth1 to Destination
(DEST) through the VLANs (Is that possible ?)
I have created 6 vif (two for  every virtual machine). Pinging through
virtual machines works fine with tags. Now that I have two physical
interfaces what ip should i assign to br0 and to etho, eth1 ?

Thanks in advance
Nick!
