Hi Dietmar,
To explain a little more. The OVH servers are just rented hardware
somewhere in a datacenter of OVH.
I have no control over switching, etc. All networking is 'internal'. See
the attached drawing.
Probably, it is what was on your mind. But I think it's good for me to
explain as clearly as possible.
And - again - if I am not educated enough about how to use traditional
vmbr setups as a vlan trunk, then any pointer to information is welcome.
Kind regards,
Stephan
