How do I connect a VM to a tagged VLAN?
I am building a host machine that has a bonded interface (bond0)
that is in turn my bridge interface (bridge0). The bond is connected
to a trunk port on the switch containing tagged vlans. I want to be
able to connect the VMs I'm building to one (or more) of the VLANs
on this trunk port.
All I can find in the documentation is an obscure reference to a
'type' modifier for the API [0]
Does libvirt support this natively, or will I need to decipher the
arcane world of OVS to make it work as I desire?

I do this outside of libvirt with plain sysconfig files. Create
multiple ifcfg-bond0.<vlanid#> files, one for each VLAN, and attach
each one to a separate bridge with multiple ifcfg-br<vlanid#> files.
Then when creating VMs, just specifiy --network=br1001
--network=br1002, etc. for each VLAN you need on that VM. Inside the
guest, they will show up as eth0, eth1, eth2, etc.
