int s0/0.1
bridge-group 1
int s0/0.2
bridge-group 2

If you want to do load sharing, you'll have to run some sort of IGP that does
it. I'm not sure about bridging, though - you *may* need to have this bridged
traffic encapsulated into IP to take advantage of load sharing (bridging
would think of multiple paths as redundant and block all but one to ensure
loop-free topology).
