LAG / VLAN on node setup

[ChrisTG74]

Hi there,
I tried the search-function but did not find any fruitful to my question:

Is it planned that the VE-installer will support definition of link-aggregation (like 802.3ad) and VLAN already while installing the node?
It is really a hassle to manually type-in an interfaces-file via the console after installation.

Other possibility would be to support some kind of "answer-file" for unattended installation. For example the installer could check for an XML-file on the media and if present read the values from there instead of the UI.

IMHO a decent soilution for this really needs to be considered to be "enterprise ready" as LAG and usage of VLANs are common practice in datacenters today.

Many thanks in advance.

There's already an open feature request: https://bugzilla.proxmox.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2164

So yes, it is planned down the line.

FWIW, if you are already doing automated installations, using a first-boot script could be used to automate that.
