This won't work. Each VLAN-tagged NIC is viewed as a separate 
link, or the physical entity you can assign to an exclusive zone, 
and thus only to one zone. You will either need to use two 
interfaces each with a tag of 32 or different VLAN tags, or 
shared zones.

This will be do-able when VNICs are delivered into Nevada. But 
instead of using e1000g32000 you will use vnicXYZ where you 
determine XYZ when you create the VNIC with dladm.
