Hi forum,
hi Tom,
is there a way to add an additional ip address to the xcp-ng managment interface with a vlan tag?
I have several dedicated servers rented in a data center which are running xcp-ng. Threfore I have some hardware restrictions. Only one physical NIC is one of them, but I can add VLANs to the configuration to make the different vms on different xpc-ng hosts speak to each other in a vlan. This is working fine so far, but I’m wondering if it is possible to have an management vlan where I can add an additioanl IP of the xapi connection of the xcp-ng host.
This woul have the benefit, that I can connect multiple xcp-ng server in a server pool rather than have them running as single host.
I don’t want to lose my connection over the public ip (of course not open to the world) , which is my fallback if the xoa on the host is not reachable. This would be the case if I would change the management interface via xsconsol into the VLAN.
In XOA I didn’t see any options. In the xcp-ng Center was a bit more of IP configuration settings, but nothing to add additonal management IPs. Maybe it is possible over the cli directly? I think it can’t be rocket science to add an additonal IP or am I wrong here?
tl,dr
Is it possible to have multiple IP adresses in different vLANs to manage the xcp-ng host?
Thank you in advance and greetings from Germany,
Dominik
