VLANs to VMs without host access

I am evaluating Fusion Pro under OSX 10.10.  I am bring two groups of VLANs into the machine on the two builtin NICs.  Each group is a different security level and of course the VLANs must not leak traffic to each other.

It appears that the VMs I create can only connect to a VLAN if that VLAN is "active" on the host OS.  Meaning I have to have ALL VLANs active on the host OS for the many VMs to see them.  Meaning the host OS is effectively tying all the VLANs together and might multicast who knows what to any / all of the VLANs....?

I would like each VM to have access to exactly one VLAN, without any connection between the VLANs at the host OS level.

Am I missing something or is this a limitation of Fusion?

Thanks!!
