Configuring 2 NICs in VM Centos 6.5

[jorgevr86]

Hi, I have the following problem. I install a Centos 6.5 VM in Proxmox 3.2 installed on a server HP DL380 G7 with 4 physical network cards. I need the installation of Centos recognize two physical cards to configure you local internal IP and other issues. I recognized only one network card. Any help you can give me is welcome.
Thanks in advance.

Hello jorgevr86

I need the installation of Centos recognize two physical cards to configure you local internal IP and other issues. I recognized only one network card.

What does "recognized" mean in this context?

If all 4 are available in the host and you want to use 2 o them for connections to VMs you have to

- define (at least) 2 bridges, e.g. vmbr0 and vmbr1

- define (at least) 2 virtual NICs for the VMs (and they will be "recognized" by the guest OS then; exception: if the virtual HW type is not known by OS, but Intel E1000 and Realtec RTL8139 should not be a problem at all)

- connect each of the two virtual NICs to one of the two bridges

Kind regards
