I am moving from Xenserver to PVE, my xenserver is currently backed by a Ceph cluster. Right now I am in the testing phase and I am trying to wrap my head around the networking config. Under Xenserver, I had:

1x1gb interface used for Management
1x1gb interface used for VM traffic
2x10gb LACP bond used for storage traffic (xen -> ceph)

I can't determine if PVE separates storage traffic from management or VM traffic, or does PVE just use the same interface for all but adding bridges to separate just VM traffic? Do I just LACP bond my 10gbe and just use that?

Cheers!
 
Hi,

you can set the management network when you create the cluster.

The Web gui is on all interfaces available.
If you do not like this restrict is with the firewall
 
Thank you for your reply!

So it looks like my setup should use my bonded 10gb, then when I add a second PVE node, I can use the 1gb interface for Management.

Sorry for the simple question, I have just been using Xen for too long.
