I see, thanks for clearing that up for me.

I would think I should be well within the 14 Gb limit with a 10 GbE
physical port plus a 1 Gb "phantom" tunneling port.  The configuration
(same as the one Peder Bach posted) committed fine but it simply didn't
work (unless I used "bandwidth 10g" instead, thereby disabling the
physical port).

Which is a shame, since that's what I would have wanted the most...
