How to use different networks, public and private

[eklaassen]

Hello all,

PVE is workring great but as we want to virtulize more and more we need more networks to our virtual machines.

I would like to have our proxmox server to be in the 192.168.0.X/24 network.
And our monitoring server in the 192.168.1.X/24 network, to monitor machines in that network.
Beside this I have some machines using public ip addresses, 83.x.x.x and 91.x.x.x

I have all the networks and vlans available at my switch. My proxmox server has only 2 network interfaces, how can I use all these networks?

Hi all,

Same situation here. I need to "team up" some of my VM's (KVM, Windows server 2003) in a different sub net and I was wondering how I can do this.
My server has 2 NIC's installed. No bonding. Static ip on each.

Hmm, it isn't completely clear to me..

I have my pve in the 192.168.x network (eth0). pve makes a bridging device for all the virtual machines to work in that network.
I can use my eth1 and bridge this device to work in the 10.0.0.x network.

But than? How do i add one or more public networks and make a host operate in this network. Do i need to make a eth0:X for each network?

pve makes a bridging device for all the virtual machines to work in that network.

Only when you select bridged mode (which is the default for KVM VMs)

You can configure a bridged VM just like a physical machine.

Thanks for the reply. But let me ask the question in an other way.

Lets say i have 1 server with 1 or 2 interfaces, eth0 and eth1. This server is connected to a switch with 4 networks/ different vlans.

How do i get network 1 and 2 to my virtual server1 and network 3 and 4 to an other virtual server?

Hi eklaasen,

I had a similar problem. Maybe this will help you:

Now I have two different subnet on my pve server. One Subnet for each NIC. When I add a separate computer to my 192.168.16.x subnet I need to add the router ip as a gateway.

Kind regards,
B

But is it possible to have the two network in one OpenVZ VM ?
For example I have a server with 2 NICs, one for each network (one private and one public).

I want to have my proxmox server responding in the private network but I want to give my VMs the two networks, is it possible ?
