Subject: [PVE-User] VLAN to VNI translation
Date: Sat, 15 Mar 2025 08:03:36 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAEaLa5F33fWYksgDQyOwGPb9PYaFs9oNPsC1L7XSkDZ7xBBEhw@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hello!,

Before requesting something that might already be there...

Is it possible to translate a VNI to a VLAN towards a VM?.

Use case would be:

1. Define various VNETs in a EVPN zone (might apply to a VXLAN zone too) as
currently supported.
2. Define an optional VLAN tag for a VNET
3. Configure a port facing a VM as trunk (vlan aware?)
4. Deliver the VNETs as VLANs to the VM on that port.

I don't want to transport VLAN inside a VNI, I want to deliver VNETs as
VLAN to a guest which will be handling VLAN tagging/untagging. All the
transport between PVE VTEPs should be kept as is implemented today (VXLAN).

It would be VNI to VLAN translation or VNI/VLAN stitching + trunking
towards a VM.

Expectations: adding as many new networks as required to a VM without
adding a vNICs, with other VMs participating in such VNETs in access mode
and without touching physical switches (VLAN zone)

Regards.
Cyrus.
