Last time I tested, openvswicth is more powerful, but kinda
complicated for new users who are used to linux bridge.

Anyway, back to Kalyana's requirement, you can either:
- bridge the trunk (eth0) to the container, and create vlan on the
interface in container side (i.e. create eth0.100 in the container)
- bridge the vlan interface (eth0.100) to the container, and use the
interface on container side (eth0) directly as regular interface
