hi,

I added a fifth node to my cluster. All nodes have three network adapters, connected for each VLAN on the same switch (with identical port configuration on the switchtes) and all nodes are configured in same manner.
Network config template:

face lo inet loopback

iface enp12s0 inet manual

iface enp11s0f0 inet manual

iface enp11s0f1 inet manual

auto vmbr0

iface vmbr0 inet static
address ABC.DEF.XX.YY/24
gateway ABC.DEF.XX.AB
bridge-ports enp11s0f0
bridge-stp off
bridge-fd 0

auto vmbr1

iface vmbr1 inet static
address AA.BB.CC.DD/24
bridge-ports enp12s0
bridge-stp off
bridge-fd 0
#Ceph1

auto vmbr2

iface vmbr2 inet static
address AA.EE.FF.GG/24
bridge-ports enp11s0f1
bridge-stp off
bridge-fd 0
bridge-vlan-aware yes
bridge-vids 110

The fifth node has newer hardware and uses RTL8226B_RTL8221B and igb network adapter drivers.

All links are up:

The links on the switches are also up.

The first four nodes reaches each other via ping on each network. If I try to ping from one of the first four seems to ping hangs like a routing problem, the ping from the fifth node to one of the first four to the ceph1 network results in a "Destination Host Unreachable" and a ping to the corosync has a routing problem similar behaviour (hangs).

PVE version: pve-manager/8.3.1

I tried lot of different configuration variations (with vlan tagging / without), but no success. At moment I'm out of idea.

Has somebody further suggestion troubleshoot the problem?
Thanks in advance.
