Multiple Bridges on one Interface

[yves.menge]

Hi There

I want to add something like a "Backend" network to my VMs (KVM).

It would look like this shema:

WAN <> (vmbr0 on eth0) <> VMs <> (vmbr11 as virtual switch) <> Backend Network


I have to be sure thta no traffic vrom my VMs backend network is reaching the eth0 interface.

Is there a easy way to do this? I allready tried to add a second bridge to the eth0 device but proxmox don't allow this.

thx for your help

Why do you want to connect the second bridge to eth0?? Simply create a second bridge without any interface assigned.
