Thank you Kelven,

I'm trying this out now. I had a similar setup before, but the network 
offerings would not show up in cloudstack UI, I will try through APIs next.

Regards
ilya

It is feasible, if purely from CloudStack API perspectives, following steps may 
help you get there (I didn't really try it in CloudStack UI
though)

1) Create 2 physical networks, in each of these physical networks, add a guest 
traffic label, label it to vSwitch2, also tag the physical network, say, one as 
DEV, the other one as MGMT
2) Create 2 network service offering, tag the service offering the same as 
corresponding physical network, so that when a network is created, it can 
direct CloudStack to find the right physical network configuration for mapping
3) Create 2 shared networks, specify the VLAN you are going to assign along 
with a corresponding network offering
4) Deploy guest VM into the selected shared network
