The brctl show output:

bridge name     bridge id               STP enabled     interfaces
eth0.100                8000.0024e827dae4       no              peth0.100

           vif1.0

           vif2.0
eth0.101                8000.0024e827dae4       no              peth0.101

           vif3.0

           vif4.0
eth0            8000.0024e827dae4       no              peth0
