Hello!,
Before requesting something that might already be there...
Is it possible to translate a VNI to a VLAN towards a VM?.
Use case would be:
1. Define various VNETs in a EVPN zone (might apply to a VXLAN zone too) as
currently supported.
2. Define an optional VLAN tag for a VNET
3. Configure a port facing a VM as trunk (vlan aware?)
4. Deliver the VNETs as VLANs to the VM on that port.
I don't want to transport VLAN inside a VNI, I want to deliver VNETs as
VLAN to a guest which will be handling VLAN tagging/untagging. All the
transport between PVE VTEPs should be kept as is implemented today (VXLAN).
It would be VNI to VLAN translation or VNI/VLAN stitching + trunking
towards a VM.
Expectations: adding as many new networks as required to a VM without
adding a vNICs, with other VMs participating in such VNETs in access mode
and without touching physical switches (VLAN zone)
Regards.
Cyrus.
