Is there vlan support on openvz?

[torontob]

Can someone please confirm if there is VLAN support for OpenVZ. I am not sure why the project is so secretive about this

Not sure what you mean with 'secretive', because you can configure that on the GUI (for veth devices).

Thanks Dietmar for the reply - I am a bit frustrated for lack of info. I am on version 3.0 and it's not possible to do it on the GUI. What commands should be run to get it working on 3.0? I do see KVM VLAN on GUI on 3.0 but not container.

I can't afford to get this upgraded to 3.3 at the moment until next weekend but I do need the VLAN to work for tomorrow so I am resorting to command line and I appreciate if you can guide me the command for HOST and Container in regards to VLAN.

I have done the following but it doesn't help and the ifcfg-eth0.4000 is coming up on OpenVZ container but it can't ping the gateway. On router I also see that the IP is not obtained. This is all there is in the documentation.

host # vconfig add eth0 4000
host # vzctl set 40177 --netif_add eth0.4000 --save

I have no idea if that is already implemented in 3.0...

Thanks. But isn't that just a infrastructure thing and not all a GUI thing? I thought openvz and mothernode support it anyhow.

P.S. what about this if there is no support:

It's available since 3.3 or 3.4.
