ovs vlan vm with mikrotik

[somarito]

Hey guys does anyone knows how to implement mikrotik vlans on proxmox. Having in mind that proxmox implements ovs vlans? QinQ is the way, I gues, but I dont have so much idea. Even after reading documentation. Can anyone help me. Thanks!

You don't need to use OVS to use VLANs. Do you need QinQ or just regular VLANs?

Regular VLANs can be set in a few ways. The most simple one would be to define it in the NIC settings of that VM in the hardware panel.
You could also define VLANs inside the VM, but for that the vmbr interface needs to have the "vlan-aware" option enabled.
You could also create a new vmbr interface that is defining the vlan in the bridge port: e.g. eth0.11 for vlan ID 11.

I personally prefer option 1, defining it directly for each NIC a VM has for simple VLANs.

ok aaron thanks!, the problem that we have its that we need to use QinQ because we are using ovs tags on proxmox and we are also defined vlans on mikrotik on trunks mode

if you need qinq, you could try the beta sdn feature

https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/chapter-pvesdn.html

create a qinq zone with the service vlan, then create a vnet (with vlan-aware option enabled) without any tag. (This will allow trunk )
