    Create OVS Bond that supports MLAG

    I have two core switches configured as MLAG peers. I have created an LACP port channel that spans both devices, connecting to an OVS bond on Proxmox host. With the standard LACP bond settings, the port channel comes up, but no traffic passes over it. I assumed this is because it is lacking...

    Open vSwitch is not working after the update

    Hello! After upgrading proxmox from 7 to 8, OVS stopped working, ports are up, but there is no network and ping to other nodes, there are no errors in the logs. If I switch to the standard Linux Bridge, then everything works, but I need OVS.

    How does OVS internally handle VLANs?

    Hey all, I've been managing a cluster of four nodes. Each node has a set of Mellanox Connect-X3 in a bond. The first 3 nodes were made a much longer time ago and use OVS IntPorts for that bond. The 4th node uses just Linux bonds and bridges. We weren't aware of it until I was testing something...

    Open vSwitch (OVS) with RSTP and OVSIntPort - ARP issue

    Dear community, We have setup similiar to OVS with RSTP and have a strange issue. The difference to the described setup is, that instead of 10Ge interconnects we have 10Ge and 1Ge Fallback - Uplinks to the switches. So far the VMs are working fine. But from one of the nodes we can not...

In turn, each bond is combined into a vmbr (OVS Bridge). Two different servers have one PfSense virtual router virtual machine...
