+Linux Xen Dom0 single bridge multiple VLAN configuration with systemd
+=====================================================================
+
+Introduction
+------------
+
+This directory contains example files to be placed in /etc/systemd/network
+to enable a single bridge with multiple VLAN support.
+
+The example is to support the scenario where the Xen host network interface
+is connected to an Ethernet switch configured as a trunk port. Each domain
+VIF can then be configured with the VLAN id (vid) of the required VLAN.
+
+The example files create a bridge device called br0, with a physical interface 
+called enp0s0. You will need to update this with your system's device name.
+
+Key points of the configuration are:
+
+1. In br0.netdev, VLANFiltering=on is set. This is required to ensure the
+   VLAN tags are handled correctly.  If it is not set then the packets
+   from the vif interfaces will not have the correct VLAN tags set.  I
+   observed them with the pvid in the switch MAC address table.
+
+2. In br0.network, a system IPv4 address is configured that can be updated
+   according to your local network settings.
+
+3. In enp0s0.network, Bridge=br0 sets the bridge device to connect to and
+   there is a [BridgeVLAN] section for each VLAN you want to give access
+   to the switch. Note, if you want to create an internal VLAN private to
+   the host, do not include that VLAN id in this file.
+
+
+Domain configuration
+--------------------
+
+Add the vid= keyword to the vif definition in the domain. For example:
+
+vif = [ 'mac=xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx, bridge=br0, vid=10' ]
+
+
+Hints and tips
+--------------
+
+1. To check if vlan_filtering is enabled, run:
+   # cat /sys/devices/virtual/net/<name>/bridge/vlan_filtering
+
+2. To check the bridge port VLAN assignments, run:
+   # bridge vlan
+
+3. To check the vid setting in the xenstore, run:
+   # xenstore-ls -f | grep 'vid ='
