Also a newb at this, but have you looked at the firewalls on the nodes themselves? I think VNets and the SDN stuff needs groups, pools, permissions, etc. to push the firewall config to a node. Turn your logs on and start dropping less and widening subnets til it works, then work backwards. "...

@moderators put this gold in an article list sticky and/or the wiki! What a concise breadcrumb that everyone could use. Tell your grandma how easy ovs sflow is even! Thanks for making the world a better place @ness1602 and community. This is the way.

Proxmox VE 8 has a better way:

I have 1G and 2.5G networks for management and lan uplink with 10G for the cluster and 40G for ceph traffic. Port layout is in the attached (bad) diagram. Two questions: Is this a sane way to do HA just using l2 bridges or is this asking for trouble? (STP, 1st node routing to the 3rd through...

optane cache can help, but not as much as you'd hope. Effectively, replication with zfs is _WAY_ better performance than ceph could ever muster.

I have a 56Gbit infiniband setup, rocev2, three nodes 3 osd ssd per node. I get the same iops. Links are fine, I have both the throughput and latency as best as they can get. Think you're wrong bud, its not a network performance issue, its a ceph issue.

Title sums it up. brand new VE 7 install. errors out eventually and goes to another mirror and works fine. my guess is the gatech repo server has something funny going on. Probably DNS ;P

If you can find a low power board that support pcie bifurcation and has enough pcie lanes your can try a 4 port nvme only pcie adapter. USB NICs might be easier even, just pass them all through to your router vm and bridge back out

Glad to help, literally why I made this, not a lot of good info on this. Also, I do link agg for my dsl with a mikrotik routerboard fwiw, not virtualized but it could be done virtually with routerOS and an x86 license. Cloud hosted router should 'just-work'

Got OpenWRT spooled up and configured on Proxmox! I have it on my old amd fx8350 with 64G of ram, a ZFS pool, and a pcie i340-T4 NIC for future use and more learning. The first two links are what you'll need to guide you, plus hopefully both the other links and this post help. Will keep adding...
