Hello,
up to this point I ran this network configuration on my Proxmox 4.4 node:
The node worked as a router for the virtual network. Everything was fine.
Then I've added a new Proxmox node to the cluster and upgraded to version 5.
The config of the first node works fine but I have to extend the network: the two nodes shall host the virtual network 192.168.1.0/24. I've read something about GRE tunneling at Heinlein/Infratix and tried the config on the second node which doesn't host production VMs right now.
As you can see tep0 and vmbr1 aren't configured now but I'm testing with tep1 and vmbr2 to see how it's working.
I created a VM on the second node and attached it to vmbr2 with the address 192.168.6.11. The network doesn't work - it doesn't forward ARP requests.
I think it might work when GRE is configured properly but I have one simple question now: how to "connect" an OVSBridge like vmbr2 with vmbr0? VLAN configuration is not needed.
I'm using openvswitch-switch from the Proxmox repository.
