Hi, >My general idea is to bridge tagged vlan packets from a physical >interface (intel) to a virtual interface (virtio in qemu) and not >losing the tags, so the qemu guest can use vconfig and friends to get >some vlan interfaces. Is this possible and are there any additional >steps necessary besides the usual bridge configuration? I'm using this setup with KVM virtualization (Qemu's successor). It didn't work with default nic type for guest (realtek I think) as 802.1q tags were not preserved properly in one of the directions. I don't remember specifics. Anyway using e1000 driver instead of default fixed it. Works like a charm. Best regards, Marek Kierdelewicz
