Busy FAFOing with this in a totally meshed setup, and the use case is to have Ceph on that SDN created VxLan/EVPN vnets of it's own. Reason to NOT have it on the "public" network, but also to allow VMs (pointing fingers to K8s) that wants direct Ceph storage access on the access network, and in future to L3 extend to external/dedicated Ceph.
So from a VM/LXC perspective the GUI is "there" to attach and PVE should/does attach to the vnet.
The problem now is that the GUI doesn't (yet?) allow me to create and attach an interface to that bridge (ala OVS IntPort or similar), so yes, I *can* go an manually add an IP and it's pingable across the cluster, and yes, I can manually add it to
Q1: *Usually* you need to add the interfaces (for ifupdown2) in the bridge, guess I can force it with "pre/post-up" to the bridge. What do I need to be aware of that I will/might trip?
Q2: Is there any plans for similar in the GUI to create a "localnet" interface to attach to a SDN vnet bridge?
Q3: What other options are there for a converged type setup to have Ceph on a separate vxlan/EVPN?
