Version 3.2Hi, is there any starting point documentation from Proxmox for the new OVS? I cant get my head around it and I'm surely missing something.I'm through the general OpenVswitch Documentation available and I was able from the commandline to replace my old vmbr0 with "vmbr1 OVS bridge" and add INT ports.However those changes do no get reflected in the webgui while performing any action in the gui results in "Parameter verification failed. (400)gateway: Default gateway already exists on interface 'vmbr1'."what am I missing?
 
and I was able from the commandline to replace my old vmbr0 with "vmbr1 OVS bridge" and add INT ports.

Please try to use the web interface (you can then see the required syntax in the config file /etc/network/interfaces.new).
 
Hi,

I’m currently using Linux Bridge on PVE 5.4. I would like to ask if I am to install OVS, will GUI automatically recognise it and disable Linux Bridge to use OVS?
