Hi Guys,

I am trying to implement VLAN's on my current homelab and
followed this tutorial https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Vlans.

Only it displays Unknown under type, is this because I missed something or
is it because I didn't connect a vlan switch to it.

Hi,
no this only means the gui is not able to parse the type of this device.
You can call your devices like you want so we can't handle all this names.
 
Hi Wolfgang, Thanks for the info maybe good to know if a Linux Bridge is
named other then vmbr.. or contains a dot. The (vlan) bridge is not selectable in a VM.

To get it good parsed I changed the eth0.10 to eth010 (removed the dot) and changed vlan10 to vmbr10.

And now it's displaying works. :)
