Perhaps showing my ignorance, but...

Can't you set up three virtual tagged bridges in ovirt?  Each bridge
would be tagged with the proper vlans, and then connect to the correct

VMs?  Is there something that prevents you from creating tagged bridges
that all link into a non-tagged physical NIC?

Or, possibly, could you set up the physical NIC for all the vlans and
then split them out into the separate virtual bridges?

This should prevent the admin on VM1 from accessing the vlans of the
other VMs because they are attached to different (tagged) bridges.  Or
is there something that prevents this approach?
