To put it in my own words: I *am* using VLAN aware vswitches, but the grant only gets you access to a single VLAN on that vswitch for a VLAN = unaware guest. If a guest needs to communicate on additonal VLANs then = either the guest needs to become VLAN aware, or you need to do a grant to= a *different* vswitch to avoid the guest losing access to the VLAN the = first grant permitted.
