Hi,

I have also some related questions about VLAN tagging.

In any linux, I can create some virtual interfaces dedicated to some 
VLANs, like bond0:50
I was expecting oVirt to allow me to create such virtual interfaces, use 
them in an oVirt "virtual network". Thus, any VM using this "virtual 
network" would be insured to stay limited to this vlan.

I know I can create bond0:50 manually in Fedora, but I guess oVirt must 
be implied in the network setup.

I also know I can setup my switches to make them do IP-vlan-tagging, but 
the solution above looks smarter to me.

How do one usually do in that case?
