Port mapping for 10 physical usb ports

[Awinner]

Hi, guys!

We want to map 10 and more physical usb keys to one virtul machine with Windows Server.
Our users need to work with many different keys simultaneously...
In "Add USB device" we can connect only 5 USB ports.
How can we connect more then five ports or vendors?
Can you suggest us any tricks or methods?
Big thanks for any suggestions!
Now we use Proxmox 5

Not tested, but add it via CMD in the configfile?

Maybe also with an simple hub?

We have tested it also via cmd in config file, but we can add maximum 5 ports.
When we add 6th usb device, we get an error...
May be somebody knows another solution?

Use a USBhub.

fireon, usbhub not work.
I installed 7 ports hub - and proxmox could add only 5 port to VM.
I try changed conf file - but it not successfully.

Look likes that this not working stable in Qemu. But you can test it with ARGS.
