[SOLVED] New Install - Add Vlan to Management Interface

[Speedy059]

I noticed during the setup you couldn't add the VLAN for the management interface. So I figured you could do it afterwards via CLI, which of course you can. However, I can't seem to get the configuration correctly. Can someone offer me any suggestions?

Setup:
Proxmox node with 1 connected interface to the switch. The switch port is set to "trunk". The reason for this is so I can create Containers/VM's and give them different networks/vlans if needed.

Issue:
I tried following this documentation, but I'm obviously not doing it right: https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/pve-admin-guide.html#sysadmin_network_configuration - "Example: Use VLAN 5 for the Proxmox VE management IP with VLAN aware Linux bridge".

Here is my current interfaces file, eno2 is not connected to the switch:

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

iface eno1 inet manual

iface eno2 inet manual

auto vmbr0.500
iface vmbr0.500 inet static
        address 1.1.1.2  #/27 block
        gateway 1.1.1.1
        netmask 255.255.255.224
       
auto vmbr0
iface vmbr0 inet manual
        bridge-ports eno1
        bridge-stp off
        bridge-fd 0
        bridge-vlan-aware yes

Any idea how to get the management network to work with Vlan 500?

please post the output of:
* `ip link -details show`
* `ip addr show`
* `ip route`
additionally check the journal for potential hints to what's wrong:
* `journalctl -b` - gives you the journal since last boot

I hope this helps!

After I posted this, I couldn't see my thread (guess it had to be reviewed?), and I was able to get it to work. After I confirmed my settings, I realized i typed neworking instead of networking when I was restarting the service.....Sorry!
