Hello,

My current config consists of an LC OVS Bridge (vmbr0) with is trunked. All the VMs, LXCs have interfaces connected to this bridge and of course each of them have a VLAN ID specified.

Now, a situation has arised where I would need a trunk port, basically just L2, to be available within an LXC container. I would have assumed that there would be no special configuration, if I would ommit the VLAN ID for the containers' network interface configuration it would work. However in this situation the interface would not be brought up automatically (this in an LXC container with a Debian image). Is there some additional configuration needed to be done within the container network settings, or on the Proxmox hosts, or currently forwarding a trunk port for an LXC is not possible?

Thank You,
