How To: Configure multiple VLAN interfaces in SolusVM

There may be times when you wish to give VM’s on one of your SolusVM nodes access to IP resrouces that are segmented into discrete VLAN’s at network level. If this is the case, you need to create network bridge interfaces on the node, and suply them with your VLAN interfaces. This is explained below.

  1. Configure the base interface, in this example, we ahve trunked eno2 with vlan’s 220 and 221, as we have group of VM’s that require to bind IP’s within this VLAN.
  2. [root@solus-node01]# cat ifcfg-eno2
    DEVICE=eno2
    BOOTPROTO=none
    UUID=xxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx
    ONBOOT=yes
    TYPE=Ethernet
    NM_CONTROLLED=no
  3. Configure your VLAN sub interfaces, note that we designate each interface to its own new bridge interface, this is required.
