What am I doing wrong with this network configuration for KVM (F5 virtual edition)
Hello,
I have been trying to setup an F5 lab using KVM on debian. I currently have the following network configuration (/etc/network/interfaces - see output pasted at end of post)
although whenever I go to create the VM in KVM, only one tap is associated with the bridge (trying to use the taps for management, external, and internal interfaces on the F5 VM). (see screenshot at end of post)
Would anyone have any suggestions for configuring networking properly for this setup? I'm open to anything at this point in time. Thanks for your help.
source /etc/network/interfaces.d/*
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
iface eth0 inet6 auto
auto br0
iface br0 inet dhcp

Well...
The management has to be on a separate vlan from the switch (tmm) interfaces... How do gou have the vlans organised? All 3 interfaces untagged on the same bridge? (Which wont work, or be allowed in the config) or something else?
