bhyve with vlans - host and vm can't pass traffic

I'm very new to bhyve and am having an issue. I'm trying to get VM's and 
VLAN's working.

I'm able to get VLAN's working in a VM, but the VM and the VMHOST, can't 
communicate with each other on the same vlan.

Using 10.1-RELEASE-p9 for both VMHOST01 and DEV. Upstream from the 
VMHOST on lagg0 is a Cisco 3750G.

VMHOST01 before starting VM:

VMHOST after starting VM (added tap0 & bridge0):

           nd6 options=29<PERFORMNUD,IFDISABLED,AUTO_LINKLOCAL>
           media: Ethernet autoselect
           status: no carrier
         bridge0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST>

           ether 02:d3:e4:02:03:00

           ifmaxaddr 0 port 4 priority 128 path cost 10000


Note that the "status: no carrier" is because I hadn't brought up the VM 
yet. It properly changes to the following after the VM is started:

         tap0: 
flags=8943<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,PROMISC,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
           options=80000<LINKSTATE>
           ether 00:bd:70:71:1d:00
           nd6 options=29<PERFORMNUD,IFDISABLED,AUTO_LINKLOCAL>
           media: Ethernet autoselect
           status: active
           Opened by PID 70827

VM:
         vtnet0: 
flags=8943<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,PROMISC,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
           options=80028<VLAN_MTU,JUMBO_MTU,LINKSTATE>
           ether 00:a0:98:2b:34:37
           nd6 options=29<PERFORMNUD,IFDISABLED,AUTO_LINKLOCAL>
           media: Ethernet 10Gbase-T <full-duplex>
           status: active
         lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 16384

           inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128
           inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x2
           inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000
           nd6 options=21<PERFORMNUD,AUTO_LINKLOCAL>
         vlan100: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> 
metric 0 mtu 1500
           ether 00:a0:98:2b:34:37
           inet 10.0.1.6 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.0.1.255
           nd6 options=29<PERFORMNUD,IFDISABLED,AUTO_LINKLOCAL>
           media: Ethernet 10Gbase-T <full-duplex>
           status: active
           vlan: 100 parent interface: vtnet0


With this configuration, both VMHOST01 and DEV can communicate anywhere, 
EXCEPT to each other using their IP on VLAN100.

The ultimate goal is to have more than one VLAN presented to the VM, 
whether it exists on the VMHOST or not.

Where did I go wrong?

Thanks in advance,
scotto
