Hi Rahul,

Did you try to use ebtables, to arrange for the first bridge to ignore 
the packet tagged as VLAN 100, to give a chance for the second bridge to 
see it ?

I remember seeing this a few month ago in the list, but failed to find 
the exact post. 'hope you will find it by yourself.

	Nicolas.
