In SmartOS or rather its flimsy cousin Solaris, you can create any number of VLANs "over" an existing "link".
That's how it basically clicks together in Solaris, unlike bridging in Linux, which most hypervisors there rely upon. Much of this is still relevant: https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23824_01/html/821-1458/fpjve.html Also, do a "man dladm" to learn "link, vlan and etherstub".
