Hi Folks,
I have a serious problem; i'm using an external VPS with an (unbound) failover ip to make a GRE-TAP tunnel to my Proxmox server at Hetzner.
I have one node with one windows guest. The tunnel worked absolutely perfect for a week, but then suddenly it quit working.
I thought it was on the VPS side; reinstalled that completely to be sure but the tunnel just doesnt work anymore.
I can still ping through it from the Hetzner side; and with TCPdump I see the traffic sending and reaching the Hetzner server but the Windows guest can't reach the internet anymore
I thought maybe this was related but I am not sure:
https://github.com/virtio-win/kvm-guest-drivers-windows/issues/416
VPS:
Proxmox:
Proxmox /interfaces:

Is there a bug with the GRETAP?
I am very in-experienced with networking stuff so I have no idea what to look for.
Greetings,
Merlijn
