Hi Anil,
First of all welcome and I hope you'll enjoy working with oVirt.

vdsdummy is a bridge VDSM creates and uses for functionality like
disconnected VNIC.
If you start a VM and you want the VM to have a vNIC not connected to a
specific network (bridge) VDSM starts the VM and connects the tap device
to the vdsdummy bridge. This is a workaround to a functionality we are
missing in libvirt (starting a VM with unconnected tap device).

About the 4 bonds, well that's a legacy code and I think we cleaned this
code in the last version 3.3 - but I'm not sure (Adding Toni to
confirm/disconfirm)
