Multiple VMs for a lab environment

[mrrlg]

Good day experts! I am a newbie to Proxmox. I am trying to create a lab environment where I can host multiple VMs each in their own vlan and trunk them across the physical interfaces of the server to a distribution switch at layer 2. The VM itself can be as small a footprint as possible, all I really need to do is apply an ip and gateway, ping and traceroute. Is this possible with Proxmox?

yes it is. But not straight out of the box per se. The standard installation is not VLAN aware. You need to configure /etc/network/interfaces to make the interface VLAN aware. Its not a big deal though. On a fresh install I do it right from the console while I still have a monitor and a keyboard attached.
