[pve-devel] [PATCH] Virtual vlan tagging to bridge interface

[Johannes Ernst]

The problem isn’t the tagging, tagging on the tap interface should work. Tagging directly on the tunnel interface won’t work. So you cannot do tunnel.1000. 
The problem is here that the virtual device will not be pass the interface checks. For example this check won’t work: PVE::Tools::dir_glob_foreach($dir, '((eth|bond)\d+)', sub {

I will do some ovs tests next week if is possible to do bind a tunnel interface to it.
