CentOS virt - Jul 2009 - Can I bridge a bonded and vlan tagged interface directly to a guest?

I am running CentOS 5.3 x86_64 as my dom0 and CentOS 5.3 on my domU's.   On
the dom0, I have two interfaces that are bonded and have tagged VLANs.   I
can get the networks to the domU's by creating a bridge for each of the
VLANS (bond0.3, bond0.4, etc).   On the domU, the interfaces show up as
eth0, eth1, etc.

Is there a way to set up the network on the dom0 so my domU's see a single
interface with tagged VLAN support??

Thanks!
   David

Hello David,

Sorry this is not an answer to your question, but how did you set up the
bonds with xen?

I tried doing the same, and did not win....

I haven't tried, but does just passing the bond interface through to the
guest and setting up the VLANs in the guest work?  VLANs are just tagged frames,
so it should work if nothing else is getting in the way.  (I don't think you
would want to do this if you consider the security implications, though.)
