= Introduction=

This wiki page describes how to configure in Proxmox VE (or any other Debian based LINUX distribution) a three node "Meshed Network" (instead of a network switch) as it can be used e.g. for connecting Ceph Servers or nodes in a Proxmox VE Cluster. This should also work with a 5-node cluster, general you need nodes_total - 1 = nic ports. The basic idea is running a small 3 node cluster with 10 Gbit network WITHOUT buying an expensive 10 Gbit network switch.

This should work with any kind of ethernet NICs, i.e. also 40 Gbit or even 100 Gbit ones. But for verifying this article, 10 Gbit Intel NICs were used.

Method 1

Create the Full Mesh on the GUI or on the Command Line is both possible.
