Hello all,
its known that the hetzner vSwitches has a limitation of 32 MAC Adresse for every Uplink NIC.
My Network configuration:
2 Proxmox VE Nodes
I use 6 vSwtiches
They are connected over 5 vSwitches, each vSwitch has its own VMBR and connects different networks across my virtualization.
I had network problems sometimes, but right now everything works fine.
Since my machines have many ressources, I plan on putting more machines on it.
First question: does the limitation mean, virtual NICs for VMs, LXC NICs, VMBR all together can not be more than 32 on each Node?
Second question: I read in the internet, that you can connect the two nodes over a VXLAN to overcome the limit? Will that work?
Third question: im sure hetzner has got that question many times, what do you as hetzner propose me to do, in order to have more than 32 NICs?
I know there is the solution, to connect them over a second, dedicated NIC and Switch. I could do that, but I want to stay flexibel with my Nodes and upgrade them to bigger machines if i want.
Thanks in advance for the tipps. If you need more information about my network, please let me know.
Best regards
Stelios
