Mapping physical subinterfaces to vRouter native interfaces
Posted: Thu Aug 09, 2018 8:53 am
HW: Dual E5-2650, 64GB, 150GB, 4xGE & 2x10GE
Type: Bare metal
Ubuntu: Ubuntu 16.04.5 LTS
eve-ng: 2.0.3-92
For our testing, we need to connect one or more native interface on each vRouters to a different tagged sub-interfaces of a physical port on the host. I can't see any easy way of doing this. I realise that I could hack the /etc/network/interfaces to statically bridge ethX.Y sub-interfaces to different pnet images but I'm hoping that there is a better way.
Also - is there a limit on the number of pnetX interfaces that can be used? In some labs we need more than the default 10 pnet interfaces if each one is mapped to a physical sub-interface.
