so let me see if I can understand this configuration.

           vmbr1v3021 (bridge)
            /          \
        tap320i1       vmbr1.3021 (vlan)
                           \
                           vmbr1 (bridge)
                              \
                             bond1
                                \
                              eth X


Is that right? Is this the setup that has the problem you are
describing?

Thanks
