Guest host cannot be connected to the LAN through 802.1q VLANs

Guest host cannot be connected to the LAN through 802.1q VLANs

[Frank Bonnet]

Hello

I'm in trouble with a guest host that is not living on the same subnet
than the hypervisor that I would like to connect to my LAN through
802.1q VLAN ( ubuntu 12.10 server amd64 )

The hypervisor VLAN number is 30
The guest VLAN number is 110

See below the /etc/network/interfaces file of the hypervisor

# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# For  Guest-VM

auto em1.110
iface em1.110 inet manual

auto br0-110
iface br0-110 inet manual
bridge_ports em1.110
bridge_stp off
bridge_fd 0
bridge_maxwait 0

# For Vm-Mother

auto em1.30
iface em1.30 inet manual

auto br0-30
iface br0-30 inet static
address 147.215.1.25
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 147.215.1.0
broadcast 147.215.1.255
gateway 147.215.1.1
dns-nameservers 147.215.1.4 147.215.128.128
dns-search esiee.fr
bridge_ports em1.30
bridge_stp off
bridge_fd 0
bridge_maxwait 0


IF ANYONE COULD HELP ... Thanks a LOT

Not sure if this is the right list.  You might get more help on the

There isn't enough information here..  Which bridge do you connect your 
vm to?

Are you attempting to configure a vlan interface in the VM?

Does the swtich you are connected to know about vlan configuration?

What behavior do you see on the VM?

Thanks
