I think you should have a look at ebtables command, in particular, the

the upper layer to use it. Upper layer might be IP, or in your particular
setup, VLAN.

Thank you very much for the ebtables hint.

I also tried to add the vlan to my bridge device but only droping the vlan
tagged paket with ebtables got it working.

I'm not sure if this is the wanted behavior for bridging vlan actions.
..or my network setup is just to ..f%%%'ed up?!

Thanks nicolas
