Thank you Ben for your answer,
But I can find none of thoses instructions in the documentation that is
downloadable on the website ( (file : "ovsman.cgi.pdf" , dated november
2009).
Is this man-page outdated ? Are those instructions new features ?

You have many choices:
"ovs-vsctl list port" will list all the properties of all ports,
including their VLAN IDs.
"ovs-vsctl list port <myport>" will list all the properties of port
<myport>, including its VLAN ID.
"ovs-vsctl get port <myport> tag" will list just the VLAN ID of port
<myport>.
I was expecting 2 possibilities:
(1) when asking "ovs-vsctl --list-ports br0" , it would be nice if
the command was answering...
tap0 vid=6
tap1 vid=10
etc...
instead of only...
tap0
tap1
The behavior of list-ports cannot be changed because other software
depends on its specific behavior.
(2) a new command looking like
"ovs-vsctl --ports-to-vlan br0" that could answer something like
tap0 vid=6
tap1 vid=10
eth0 trunk or 801.1Q
etc...
I have often thought that we should introduce a command that prints an
overview of bridges and their ports, but there is none yet.
