Hi
I have recently installed deployed a new Proxmox VE 4.4 on an older SuperMicro server.
The server has 2 onboard Intel Server NIC's and two PCIe cards containing dual Intel Server NIC's.
All NIC's are shown as Intel Corporation 82576 Gigabit Network Connection (lspci | grep -i eth)
Already upon installation I had issues, as I could not get it use the onboard NIC that is connected to our management network. Instead it choose a port on the first addin NIC, but after installation, all 6 NIC's show up in the web interface.
Now the next step is that I want to create OVS-bridge to run my VM's on.
I have created the vmbr1 bridge, assigned it an IP-addres and restarted the server, but the vmbr1 bridge is still marked as active=no.
I do not know if the second cable is connected to the device that proxmox detects as eth1, but I do also not know how to find out which interfaces are seen as having a physical link.
Could someone tell me how to find out which links have a physical link running and also how I can get hte vmbr1 running?
