Two subnet, two interfaces... using macvlan?

LXD
1

Hi everyone,

I’ve an Ubuntu 16.04.5 LTS host running Lxc 2.0.11, with two network interfaces to reach two different subnets. In this moment I’m using this settings custom template:

lxcbr0          8000.00163e000000       no             veth5QEGB5
                                                                             vetha9c90c84
lxcbr1          8000.a64ec9f7da73       no              veth2609861c
                                                                            vethKXKDB0

and this default settings:

config:
  environment.http_proxy: ""
  user.network_mode: ""
description: Default LXD profile
devices:
  eth0:
    name: eth0
    nictype: macvlan
    parent: eno1
    type: nic
  eth1:
    nictype: bridged
    parent: lxcbr1
    type: nic
name: lanprofile
used_by: []

On the guest Ubuntu I’ve two network interfaces:

  • eth0 is static and works fine for the first subnet;
  • eth1 is configured to use DHCP, an IP address was assegned correctly;

I configured the default gateway to use eth0 and a new route to reach the second subnet using eth1… but the second subnet is unreacheable.

Some ideas? :slight_smile:
Thank you very much

Hi!

A note here: It looks like you are using LXD but there are many references to LXC 1.0 (for example, lxcbr0 instead of lxdbr0, 2.0.11 is the latest version of LXD/deb in Ubuntu 18.04). Is there a chance that you are using both LXC 1.0 and LXD commands at the same time?

Yes, it’s possible! :frowning:
Now I’m using a new profile

devices:
eth0:
name: eth0
nictype: macvlan
parent: eno1
type: nic
eth1:
name: eth1
nictype: bridged
parent: lxdbr0
type: nic

I shutdown lxcbr0 and lxcbr1 interfaces, I added some rows (up route del, up route add…) into “/etc/network/interfaces.d/50-cloud-init.cfg” and It seem works fine! Yeah! :slight_smile:

Great! I am glad it worked.
