Hi guys and girls!<br>
<br>
Is someone using open vSwitch (ovs) with multiple VLANs? How is your
VM-s configured?<br>
Let's say that on Proxmox host I have created bridge <b>vmbr0</b>
(for LAN communication) and <b>vmbr1</b> (for Internet). <b>And
there should be 5 VLANs on vmbr0.</b><br>
<br>
Do you need to give VM two network adapters - one connected to vmbr0
and other one to vmbr1 and then when you configure VM network
interfaces, then you say that on eth0 (which is connected to vmbr0)
there are vlans 10, 20, 30 and 40, 50 for example.<br>
<br>
So, for Debian an very simple example would be:<br>
eth0.10<br>
eth0.20<br>
eth0.30<br>
eth0.40<br>
eth0.50<br>
<br>
Right now I am using Linux bridge and VLANs are made in Proxmox host
and VM-s get multiple ethernet adapters, resulting in Debian conf:<br>
eth0<br>
eth1<br>
eth2<br>
eth3<br>
eth4<br>
So, all vmbrs (vmbr10, vmbr20, vmbr30, vmbr40 and vmbr50) are
connected to VLANs on Proxmox host and are being used in VMs and as
far as I know, I can't connect one physical Proxmox host port (eth0)
to multiple ovs bridges.<br>
That means I can't leave my VMs configuration like that, is that
right?<br>
<br>
Hope someone can share his/her experience on this Open vSwitch
topic!<br>
<br>
All the best<br>
Sten<br>
