Little Proxmox Help pls.
Before i have used only /32 and never used /29 . How can i route a ip block of /29 to proxmox ? and how do i select a specific IP from the /29 to use in VPS ?
Its from OVH so i have generated mac and will enter when i make the vps. that part i know but how do i route a 29 that idk...
Comments
need help shoot me a pm
If /29 is already routed to your server, you have no any other thing to do (check the netmask in your node's config to be 255.255.255.248 or greater).
If it is LXC, then, you have to enter the desired ip to ipv4/cids as xxx.xxx.xx.xx/32 and the gateway to the next field.
If it is KVM, then, you have to enter the desired address to the vm itself.
I have done this so far :
route add -net x.x.x.x/29 255.255.255.248 dev vmbr0
is this correct or do i need to change the net config manually ?
Where did you do this? In terminal? You should add network in proxmox's GUI. What virtualization do you use? LXC or KVM? Also, have you created a vmbr0 virtual networking? If not, then you could use eth0 as bridge. But you should create a vmbr0 bridge. Give me more infos so I can give you a proper answer.
I did it in terminal.
I am using kvm.
Yes created vmbr0 already.
Create your KVM vm using proxmox's interface, selecting vmbr as network bridge. Select your preferred network card. Open the proxmox's vnc to setup the KVM VM. When the setup enters the network config, use your prefferd ip as the vm's ip, 255.255.255.255 as netmask and your node's ip as gateway (chose dns servers according with your needs, like google's 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4).
That should be all. When you complete the setup of the KVM vm, you should have assigned the ip to your new server.
You may also need to add the unique MAC address that you generated via the OVH administration interface that corresponds to the IP that you will be using for the VM. Otherwise, networking will not be functional within the new VM.
EDIT: You mentioned this in the original post. My apologies. I misunderstood.
You should also specify the MAC address of the desired IP here
I am using KVM QEMU not LXC
Have created a bridge like this for every ip :
will this work or i am missing something ?
There is a tutorial on the proxmox wiki for OVH servers, because its a bit different from normal:
https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/OVH
You only need 1 bridge. This will be your external connection to the node. Use the main IP given by OVH.
You do not need to setup a bridge for each additional IP given to you by OVH. You only need to specify the MAC address as noted earlier during the VM creation wizard.
After you setup the bridge, you can then configure VMs to use that bridge (vmbr0) during the VM creation wizard.
Then, when working through the VM creation wizard just fill in all of the information such as MAC, IP, Netmask, Gateway, etc.
The VM will then use the vmbr0 bridge to get out to the internet. As long as you add the proper MAC and input all other details correctly, the VM should have functional networking.
