OpenVSwitch Installation in a Proxmox Installation

1. install openvswitch - important: /etc/apt/sources.list must contain "deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian wheezy pvetest"

2. apt-get install openvswitch-switch

Following steps by WEB-GUI:

3. If you continue using existing physical NICs at host and IP address: remove IP-address and ports from vmbr0

4. create an ovs bridge e.g. vmbr1(no ports for the moment) and assign the desired IP address, probably 192.168.1.12, activate autostart too

5. create an ovs bond with slaves eth0 eth1 (I suppose) and select as bridge vmbr1

6. assign the virtual NICs in the VMs to vmbr1

7. reboot

You can verify after reboot the proper configuration by
Code:   ovs-vsctl show
should show your configuration (bridge, ports), version must be 2.0.90 or higher

my wish with Proxmox would be:
Have some virtuell Server KVM and OpenVZ and reach them with IPv6
The Proxmox Host (Server) itself dont't need IPv6, he will only be reached in a local Network with a Privat IPv4

the Question was/is how to do it:

So what nedd to be configured on the Proxmox Server?

And what need to be configured on the KVM and the openVZ Server?

I have the following Hardware and would like to use Proxmox for virtualisation.

I have 2 Nic Port Eth0 and Eth1
i have a Cisco-Switch and Fritzbox as Switch and Router

the Cisco-Switch is also conected to the router

Router  -------------- Server
Router  --- Switch --- Server

i would like
to bundle Eth0 and Eth1 to share bandwith
as i found out it would be a Bond (what is the difference between OVS Bond and Linux Bond?)

I would like
to use IPv6 Adresse for this Container which should be reached bei outside.

Download a ISO file burn a CD, a USB Stick what work for the installation he is asking for cd and the Installation will hang....

At a point you will be asked to give a
Servername, IP, Subnetmask, Gateway, Domaine, Password ...

After a reboot you can start with https://yourIP:8006 (Example you have to use your one defined IP Adresse)

and Login with root and your password

i have done a Linux Bond0 LACP Mode and after a reboot which i had to do, i could not conect any more. Why?
and what is the difference:

Linux Bond Mode
- balance-rr
- active-backup
- balance-xor
- broadcast
- LACP (802-3ad)
- balance-tlb
- balance -alb

and what is a Slaves:?
