I am having problems with pings to disconnected machines on my PVE host: Sometimes, instead of resulting in "Destination Host Unreachable", ping responses are recognized from wrong IPs: PING octopus.example.com (192.168.1.38) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from shark.example.com (192.168.5.14)...

That's not related to an update from PVE7 to PVE8, is it? I did the upgrade here, and performance is as before (but without a separate kernel module installed now in PVE8: iperf -c 192.168.1.6 -P 8 ------------------------------------------------------------ Client connecting to 192.168.1.6...

On 6, I needed mellanox drivers for stability. Otherwise, under higher load the card was doing strange things, like taking a coffee break. It hasn't done that, yet, with pve8 and the kernel driver. <knockonwood>

Looks better here: [ 10.320111] mlx5_core 0000:c1:00.0: firmware version: 14.32.1010 [ 10.320160] mlx5_core 0000:c1:00.0: 63.008 Gb/s available PCIe bandwidth (8.0 GT/s PCIe x8 link) [ 10.625522] mlx5_core 0000:c1:00.0: E-Switch: Total vports 10, per vport: max uc(128) max mc(2048) [...

Didn't get a reply and gave it a try. Currently running MT27710 under pve8 with the 6.5.11-7 kernel (enterprise repo). Which issues are you seeing?

I'm trying to pave the way for migrating Proxmox 7 to 8. One warning thrown by pve7to8 is about an installed dkms module - which is version 4.18.0 of the mellanox drivers, as previously, my ConnectX-4 was not working reliably. I googled and found that this module will probably cause issues...

Yep, I did this on my Cisco switch just in the same way that I have configured other bonded trunks on that thing. But, I did just find the problem: It was a simple typing error in the config. Looks like the network stack does not complain if you miss a hyphen in the right place... :rolleyes...

I have the same problems with a vlan aware bridge... The host can only ping itself, no VMs, not the switch it is connected to, nothing. bond0: flags=5187<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MASTER,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 ether 1c:34:da:7f:b1:52 txqueuelen 1000 (Ethernet) RX packets 6422 bytes...

Thanks all for the help. I did fiddle around with this quite a bit. I can get things to work up to the point that I create a Linux bond and bridge it: # loopback interface auto lo iface lo inet loopback # physical interfaces iface enp193s0f0np0 inet manual iface enp193s0f1np1 inet manual...

Thanks, sounds like a plan. It's a bit disappointing that I need separate ports for each VLAN. Looks like with the vlan-aware linux bridge, there is a way to do this without a "device" per VLAN as described here. But thanks again. Will try both ways and see how it works. (I've read somewhere...

Yes, thanks for reminding me that I'm getting old. :) New version: auto lo # loopback interface iface lo inet loopback # bond auto bond0 iface bond0 inet manual ovs_bridge vmbr0 ovs_type OVSBond ovs_bonds enp193s0f0np0 enp193s0f1np1 ovs_options...

I'm planning to move my physical firewall into a proxmox VM. For this purpose, I need to "upgrade" my network config. Currently, Proxmox is connected to an access port on my switch. In the new config, proxmox shall be getting all VLANs for passthrough in an lacp trunk port to one VM. Current...

TLDR of the below: Manual install of the mellanox driver for the pve kernel worked. Not sure I can remove the standard linux headers, though, as this will also remove other packages which may be required for DKMS? Long version: It seems what has happened is that I needed updated mellanox...

Thanks, so I have the pve kernels installed by default. Not sure where the old linux 5.10.0 kernel comes from. It's never booted. As mentioned, after the error occured I did install pve-headers. Should I now apt -f install pve-kernel-5.15.74-1-pve? apt -f install <some meta package for pve...

Hi, I just updated my promox host after quite some time of it running stable and me traveling (so better not touch a running system). During update, I saw the following error: Examining /etc/kernel/postinst.d. run-parts: executing /etc/kernel/postinst.d/apt-auto-removal 5.15.74-1-pve...
