Why not use VMWare ESX 3i? It is now free, and it will allow you to do
virtual vlans

Hi All,

I am setting up a lab in VMWare and I am looking for ways to emulate a
switch with 802.1q VLANs for L2 network security testing. I would like
to be able to signal trunking via DTP and test double-tagged frames
(QinQ) to jump VLANs, etc. I prefer open source / free solutions.

Cheers.
