Doesn't work network in host

artem1992 · Dec 21, 2015

My network configuration (i found this in next topic):

To /etc/iproute2/rt_tables file i added:

Code:

100  vlan169

/etc/network/interfaces:

Code:

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto vmbr0
iface vmbr0 inet static
        address 192.168.0.103
        netmask 255.255.255.0
        gateway 192.168.0.1
        bridge_ports eth0
        bridge_stp off
        bridge_fd 0

auto vmbr2
iface vmbr2 inet static
        address  192.168.169.254
        netmask 255.255.255.0
        bridge_ports none
        bridge_stp off
        bridge_fd 0
        post-up ip rule add from 192.168.169.0/24 iif venet0 table vlan169
        post-up ip route add default via 192.168.0.1 dev vmbr2 table vlan169
        post-up ip route flush cache
        pre-down ip rule del from 192.168.169.0/24 iif venet0 table vlan169
        pre-down ip route del default via 192.168.0.1 dev vmbr2 table vlan169
        pre-down ip route flush cache

Than i create windows vm, did set bridge mod (bridge vmbr2) and set up network in windows:

But ping 192.168.169.245 doesn't work. Please help me. What i did wrong?

i'm no expert on Linux-native bridges (i only do openvswitch with proxmox exclusively and get someone else to do the complicated linux-native networking stuff if that ever comes up), so this might not be expert testimony ...

- but did you just assign the same IP for the bridge AND the VM's vNic ?
- And more to the point, vmbr2 is not connected to a physical nic ?

have a look here for examples:
https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Network_Model
https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Open_vSwitch

ps.: with next topic you mean this one https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/add-vlans-without-reboots-network-restarts.25241/ right ? the link provided there for vlans refers to Pve 1.x / 2.x

with next topic i mean : https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/i...rom-container-to-vm-venet-to-vm-bridge.24794/
And more to the point, vmbr2 is not connected to a physical nic ?
I have only one nic. I thought i can do ip forwarding.

Q-wulf · Dec 21, 2015

I do not know how you'd do ip-forwarding on a linux-native bridge. As i said, not my strong suit.

This is a local Machine ? Not running in a datacenter like hetzner/ovh ? So you can run multiple macs from the eth0/vmbr0, right?

i'd then do the following:

attach your physical eth0 to vmbr0. (linux native or openvswitch)
Add a IP for your NODE so you can access the GUI.
Setup your VM
1. for each vNIC do the following via GUI:
  1. add a vNic
  2. Assign it a Vlan-tag "e.g. 169" if your into vlan tagging, leave it out if your not into tagging.
  3. Assign it a Bridge "vmbr0"
Restart your VM.
Configure your Windows VM
1. set your ipaddress 192.168.x.y
2. set the appropriate subnet add your gateway 192.168.0.1

That should work. for a single Physical Nic. For multiple Nics you can do bonding / multiple bridges.

artem1992 · Dec 21, 2015

This is a local Machine ? yes
Please, can you explain what you mean:

attach your physical eth0 to vmbr0. (linux native or openvswitch)
Add a IP for your NODE so you can access the GUI.

So this is my config, is it correct?

Code:

auto lo iface lo inet loopback iface lo inet loopback iface eth0 inet manual auto vmbr0 iface vmbr0 inet static address 192.168.0.103 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.0.1 bridge_ports eth0 bridge_stp off bridge_fd 0

Setup your VM

trying do ping:

Q-wulf · Dec 21, 2015

that is "odd".

I assume you know about this gem:

The network configuration is usually changed using the web interface. Changes are stored to /etc/network/interfaces.new, and are activated when you reboot the host. Actual configuration resides in /etc/network/interfaces. The following examples list the contents of that file.

Q0: have you done "ifconfig" on your Proxmox-node to verify you have only that interface up with the setting you posted ? Cannot tell from your screenshot if you restarted networking or not.
Q1: from VM can you ping your proxmox host ? as in 192.168.0.103 ?
Q2: You installed your virtio-network drivers i assume (otherwise you'd not have that virtual interface in windows)
Q3: the mac-Address is unique for your network right ?
Q4: what is the output of ifconfig equivalent on windows ?
Q5: which windows version is that ? can not tell from screenshot.
Q6: your Proxmox-node can ping 192.168.0.1 and it is the gateway, right ?

thank you for your help

Q0 - i did restart

q1: from VM can you ping your proxmox host ? as in 192.168.0.103 ?
No

Q2: You installed your virtio-network drivers i assume (otherwise you'd not have that virtual interface in windows)

yes

Q3: the mac-Address is unique for your network right ?
yes

Q4: what is the output of ifconfig equivalent on windows ?

also i tried set gateway 192.168.0.103 doesn't work too (
Q5: which windows version is that ? can not tell from screenshot.
windows XP
Q6: your Proxmox-node can ping 192.168.0.1 and it is the gateway, right ?
yes i can ping and it is gateway.

thanks

Q7: I can not remember, does Windows XP require a reboot after you change the network settings ?
Q8 It says "local area connection 4" - are there any other "active adapters" ?
Q9: i'd say your /etc/network/interfaces on your Proxmox-node is setup correctly. Can you try and create a LXC and assign it an ip of 192.168.0.x/24 start it and ping it from your proxmox-node ?
Q10: can you stop the windows firewall ? According to a couple of threads i found it blocks pings by default
Q11: i just stumbled upon this: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Windows_XP_Guest_Notes suggestion: setup a second vNic for that VM. use different mac and choose rtl8139 instead of virtio. If you have a DHCP server in your network, see if you can get that Vm to get a ip auto-assigned. If so, your virtio-driver might not be working.

ping from pve server to windows vm works

ok i will try install linux vm

Q-wulf · Dec 21, 2015

try this first :
Q10: can you stop the windows firewall ? According to a couple of threads i found it blocks pings by default

artem1992 · Dec 21, 2015

Well firewall is stopped.

: i just stumbled upon this: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Windows_XP_Guest_Notes suggestion: setup a second vNic for that VM. use different mac and choose rtl8139 instead of virtio.

thanks i will try this
