Single VLAN in VMBR Config

[spetrillo]

Hello al,

Can someone confirm for me what I suspect is happening. I have a virtual bridge configured with 1 vlan specified in the bridge-vids statement. Typically I would add the vlan tag to the network device config of the VM, but when there is only 1 vlan configured in the bridge-vids it looks like you do not have to specify the vlan tag. Is this true?

Thanks,
Steve

"bridge-vids" are the list of allowed vlans in the bridge. (by default it's 2-4096 to allow all vlans). If you add a vm interface with a specific tag vlan, it'll not work if the vlan is not also defined in bridge-vids.

So this is my network config:

iface enp1s0f0 inet manual

auto vmbr1
iface vmbr1 inet manual
bridge-ports enp1s0f0
bridge-stp off
bridge-fd 0
bridge-vlan-aware yes
bridge-vids 1

Since I am only specifying one vlan tag above do I need the vlan tag on the attached or does it automatically add the vlan tag of 1 from the virtual bridge config?
