Hello

I have 2 servers at OVH, using Proxmox 3.4 since 2 years.

I move all containers 3.4 from srv01 to srv02
I reinstall srv01 in Proxmox 4.3
... scp, restore...
Ok, the container is up in 4.3.

But network doesn't work. :confused:
I read several posts on this forum, and doc... but not yet working.

srv01 has it own IP address (123.234.123.234).

From the OVH manager, I move an IP /32 (123.123.123.123/32) on srv01 for this container).
I try to have this container using this IP /32

I don't defined this IP /32 on the Proxmox host :
normal... it will not be a Proxmox interface, but a container interface...

I delete all OLD interfaces (coming from Proxmox 3.4) from the container.

I try to create a new eth0 interface with :

=============================
eth0
MAC auto (I put nothing)
Bridge vmbr0
IPv4 123.123.123.123/32
Gateway : 123.123.123.123 (same IP)
=============================

in the container network interface :
Code:
# Auto generated lo interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback


auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
        address 123.123.123.123
        netmask 255.255.255.255
# --- BEGIN PVE ---
        post-up ip route add 123.123.123.123 dev eth0
        post-up ip route add default via 123.123.123.123 dev eth0
        pre-down ip route del default via 123.123.123.123 dev eth0
        pre-down ip route del 123.123.123.123 dev eth0
# --- END PVE ---
----------------------------

Code:
# ifconfig -a
eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr de:c2:78:96:f1:85
          inet addr:123.123.123.123  Bcast:0.0.0.0  Mask:255.255.255.255

-------------
Code:
# ip route
default via 123.123.123.123 dev eth0
123.123.123.123 dev eth0  scope link


Doesn't work ...

I see several examples, but seem to use the vmbr0
But here, I have eth0 !

All seem logical, but I miss probably some points...

Thanks ;)

No, I don't create a virtual MAC in the OVH manager,
because I NEVER need before. :cool:

With Proxmox 3.4, I simply move my IP or block IP from one server to the new server, and it's work !
I even don't define IP routes... and it was ok. :)

I yet make this yesterday in 3.4...
If I need to manually create a virtual MAC for each IP one by one for 4.3 ? ...

And before, with 3.4 ?
Of course I understand that OVH, when moving the IP, make a ARP definition in their routers, between the IP and the MAC of the servers
So why it was working before without be obliged to manually defined virtual MAC addresses ?

It can be borrying when you must move, quickly, an range of 16 or 32 IPs addresses... one by one :eek:

But ok, I will try.

http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/OVH

I change the gateway, to 123.123.123.254.
Not yot working.

I will test the virtual MAC this evening or tomorrow.

Thanks. :)

Hello Tom

Ok, GREAT.
I follow this guide for Proxmox 4.3 and OVH.

I create Virtual Mac via tha OVH manager, and I put this Virtual Mac in the container IP configuration.
All is OK now. :)
Thanks for your help.

Hello
Not yet perfect... IPv6 ... ;)

OVH range is
2001:41d0:2:a1bc::/64
Gateway : 2001:41d0:0002:a1ff:ff:ff:ff:ff


I want to use 65536 IPv6 to container 324

I assign the OVH Virtual Mac to the container.
Ok in IPv4
I assign IPv6 too , on same eth0 :

IPv6/CIDR : 2001:41d0:0002:a1bc:0000:0000:0144:0000/112
Gateway : 2001:41d0:0002:a1ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

Ping6 is ok on this IPv6.
$ ping6 2001:41d0:0002:a1bc::144:0
PING 2001:41d0:0002:a1bc::144:0(2001:41d0:2:a1bc::144:0) 56 data bytes
64 bytes from 2001:41d0:2:a1bc::144:0: icmp_seq=1 ttl=54 time=23.1 ms
64 bytes from 2001:41d0:2:a1bc::144:0: icmp_seq=2 ttl=54 time=23.0 ms


But I define a web site on 2001:41d0:0002:a1bc::144:100
I cannot reach it !
Timeout. :(
Apache2 VirtualHost seem correctly defined for IPv6


$ ping6 2001:41d0:0002:a1bc::144:100
PING 2001:41d0:0002:a1bc::144:100(2001:41d0:2:a1bc::144:100) 56 data bytes
From 2001:41d0::fc2 icmp_seq=1 Destination unreachable: Address unreachable

I test with tcpdump : the container receive the IPv6 packet 2001:41d0:0002:a1bc::144:0
but not the 2001:41d0:0002:a1bc::144:100 :confused:

Why ?
It's inside de range
IPv6/CIDR : 2001:41d0:0002:a1bc::144:0/16

Probably I don't yet understand IPv6 ... :cool:

Thanks

Hi I have got a similar problem.
I link a IP bloc with a Vrack and than can't create virtual mac for this adresses in the manager of OVH. (only virtual mac can be created for block ip affected to a physical server)
I have eth1 without ip adress linked to the vrack, an vmbr3 (with private adress bridged to this eth1 interface)
For linux vm machine bridged to the vmbr3, I simply configure the network interface with an IP adresse of my bloc (with the brodcast, mask and gateway given by OVH)..Linux machine can access the internet and I can acces my linux from internet.
But ...for windows machine with the same config, no connectivity to internet, only connectivity between vm with public adress bridged to my vmbr3
any ideas ?

my proxmox network config is here after and also config of one vm linux
