February 13, 20233 yr Hi there, Many months ago I bought a 10 gigabit pci-e card, for my unraid server. At first I struggled a bit to be able to put it as eth0 (basically creating "network-rules.cfg" manually), but any change in the server and I needed to recreate it, until I decided to deliver the two onboard network cards to a VM, then my problem was over. Well... IT WAS over, because I decided to remove the two cards from the VM and the problem came back. I wanted to know if there's anything I can do to fix this setting (which doesn't even appear in the web gui)? P.S.: sorry for my bad english, got help from google translate srv1-diagnostics-20230213-0854.zip
February 15, 20233 yr You should not need to modify network-rules.cfg manually. Go to Settings -> Network Settings -> Interface Rules and set the correct nic as eth0, then reboot. That will manage the network-rules.cfg file. Once Unraid is no longer using the onboard nic, you can go to Tools -> System Devices and bind the onboard nics to VFIO. That hides them from Unraid and makes them always available to be passed through to a VM.
February 16, 20233 yr Author I wanted to let all 3 interfaces available to Unraid, but Interface Rules does not show, that's why I manage the file manually. Edited February 16, 20233 yr by Renks typo
March 11, 20233 yr Author I've bridged (is this a word?) all 3 interfaces and... my switch generated lots and lots of log messages. I've bound 2 of them with vfio and the 10 gig interface became eth0, but... I want to use the other two in the host.
