September 13, 20214 yr I'm currently putting my 20TB unraid server through its paces and have been trying to see if what I want to do is possible. While it is working currently, it may be due to luck more than anything. I'm new to Unraid and Docker containers as a whole. I used separate VMs for just about everything before moving to Unraid from OpenMediaVault Current network configuration: NIC 1 eth0 (onboard): 2.5G -> SMB/Host use -> Static 192.168.2.200 (Plex/Tautulli Dockers assigned to host) NIC 2 (HP 360T dual Port) Port A eth1: -> Bridged to br1 -> Static 192.168.2.201 - Used for DelugeVPN and Valheim Dockers only Port B eth2: -> Bridged to br2 -> Static 192.168.2.202 - Unable to use in Docker (does not show up, but can set usable for VMs) Note: All dockers are set to their own static IP addresses on the same subnet. Desired Network layout: Use eth0 for Host/SMB only Use br1 for DelugeVPN only Use br2 for all other Dockers (Plex + Valheim and maybe a Wireguard) but it doesn't show up as a drop down Is this a feasible plan? Is there any reason why br2 doesn't show up in the dropdown for Docker containers? Edited September 13, 20214 yr by tx.canyon
October 12, 20214 yr Did you ever find any information on this. I have an HP DL380p with quad 1gHz nics and I want to separate out the traffic on my network. Nic1 Storage Nic2 Docker Nic3 VM's? Nothing in the docs really goes into dedicated or passthrough nics.
October 12, 20214 yr Author Due to docker crashing my server, I went with a different strategy. I abandoned bridging totally for docker for my 2nd,3rd nics. Nic 1 (2.5G Host): Plex, Tautulli Nic 2(port A): Binhex/DelugeVPN) Nic 3(port b): Bridge br2 - VMs I haven't had a single crash since.
