So recently I tried to set up my home network around VLANs...
I wanted to have 3 different networks:
- Vlan 10 for the main and management network
- Vlan 20 as the guest lan
- vlan 100 as P2P Net (Modem -> Pfsense)
All managed by my server running a hypervisor(Proxmox) in my basement.
For routing between the different Vlans and to the Internet I run Pfsense as a Guest on server.
Now I have the problem that traffic going in and out (and even only between the VMs) from the server, a big chunk of the traffic gets lost so e.g. a TCP socket collapses only in a few seconds.
The Server is a HP DL580 G7 with a HP NC375i NIC.
For the switch on the other end I use a Netgear GS105E-200PES - but that works just fine e.g. traffic only going through this switch works just fine.
I also made a
Network topology so it's better understandable (yes it was made in paint - don't punish me
)
For the bridge configuration .. I tried every combination I know of:
Linux Bridge with VLAN aware:
Code:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
iface enp4s0f0 inet manual
iface enp4s0f1 inet manual
iface enp4s0f2 inet manual
iface enp4s0f3 inet manual
auto vmbr0
iface vmbr0 inet manual
bridge_ports enp4s0f0
bridge_stp off
bridge_fd 0
bridge_vlan_aware yes
auto vmbr0.10
iface vmbr0.10 inet static
address 10.0.0.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
Every VLAN one bridge:
Code:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
iface enp4s0f1 inet manual
iface enp4s0f2 inet manual
iface enp4s0f3 inet manual
iface enp4s0f0 inet manual
auto vmbr10
iface vmbr10 inet static
address 10.0.0.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 10.0.0.254
bridge_ports enp4s0f0.10
bridge_stp off
bridge_fd 0
auto vmbr20
iface vmbr20 inet manual
bridge_ports enp4s0f0.20
bridge_stp off
bridge_fd 0
auto vmbr100
iface vmbr100 inet manual
bridge_ports enp4s0f0.100
bridge_stp off
bridge_fd 0
auto vmbr110
iface vmbr110 inet manual
bridge_ports enp4s0f0.110
bridge_stp off
bridge_fd 0
And with Open vSwitch:
Code:
auto vmbr0
iface vmbr0 inet manual
ovs_type OVSBridge
ovs_ports enp4s0f0
ovs_ports enp4s0f0 vmbr0-mgmt
allow-vmbr0 vmbr0-mgmt
iface vmbr0-mgmt inet static
address 10.0.0.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 10.0.0.254
ovs_type OVSIntPort
ovs_bridge vmbr0
ovs_options tag=10
Any help would be much appreciated
