Also, please show the output of: /ip -d link show dev vxlan1026/

Did you create that vxlan interface before installing cloudstack?

Hi,

the vlan script will be executed because in the wizard i used only the number, 
without vxlan:// prefix.
If no Prefix is given, VLAN will be used. I thought, if i choose type VXLAN, 
the VNI will be used and not the VLAN-ID. (CloudStack 4.21.0.0 )

Because of that, I’m a step further now, but i don’t know how to use the Pubic 
and Guest Traffic as VXLAN on a bridge (without an IP for the Hypervisor)
Should the Guest and Traffic also have a label and/or an VNI (or should i 
create a dedicated bridge for Guest and Public)?

brvx is down until a VXLAN sub-interface is added…

Hi,

Please show the output of "brctl show" and "ip -br link show"

I suspect the GUEST network is inheriting brcsmm1 from Management since
GUEST is not assigned a label.

Hi Júlíus,

thank you for your message.

i’ve created again a new zone (new DB from scratch) and do following traffic 
tags:

Physical Network 1, Isolation Method: VXLAN

    *
GUEST (without Label)
    *
MANAGEMENT (brcsmm1)
    *
PUBLIC (without Label)
    *
STORAGE (brdrbd1)

log show: Error: argument "brvxlan1028-1096" is wrong: "name" not a valid

brvxlan1028-1096 - don’t know why this is used or created, brvxlan1028 is 
brcsmm1 with subinterface vxlan1028
1096 is my public guest Network, but i didn’t used it in the wizard.

and i can’t explain why still modifyvlan instead of modifyvxlan is used.
Maybe if NO Traffic Label is set, it uses modifyvlan?

Best Regards,
Jan

Hi Jan,

Max ifname length is 15 characters, so yes. The ifname of
brvxlan1028-1096 is too long.

Did you replace the modify-vxlan.sh with the EVPN-VXLAN version?
Otherwise you're using the multicast version.

I also notice that the modifyvlan.sh (notice vlan, not vxlan) is
executing and trying to create a VLAN on a traditional bridge... That's
probably not what you want. What should happen is that modifyvxlan.sh
should have created another bridge named brvx1096 which should have a
bridge slave of vxlan1096. Names might not be entirely correct but you
probably get what I mean.

Hi Cloudstack Community,

i have trouble with the Zone/Welcome Wizard in Cloudstack - the System
VMs are in a deployment/reboot loop.
Maybe because of the wrong or too long Bridge Name for VXLAN with EVPN.

i’m looking for „normal“ VXLAN Bridges like brvxlan2001 for example
customer1...

After the Wizard completes, the Systems VMs are permanently
rebooted/deployed. And the Wizard create following Interfaces: cloud0
and vxlan1028.1096@vxlan1028

Log Show (1096 should be the public VXLAN):

i’ve following setups without success:

have someone a idea how to create the Interfaces and Traffic Types?
