Exercises: Bridged network for VM.
Shutdown the VMs:
Configure the bridged interface: edit file /etc/network/interfaces
on the desktop and add the configuration for br0 interface. The configuration file
now should look as follows:
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
# The bridging interface
auto br0
iface br0 inet dhcp
bridge_ports enp4s0
bridge_stp off
bridge_fd 0
bridge_maxwait 0
|
Bring up the bridged interface:
Check if an IP address has been assigned to interface br0;
ifconfig br0 | grep -w 'inet'
|
Configure kvm3 VM for the bridged network:
edit the xml configuration file, /etc/libvirt/qemu/kvm3.xml
and replace
<interface type='network'>
|
with
<interface type='bridge'>
|
Also replace
<source network='default'/>
|
with
Assign a unique MAC address to the VM in the xml file. For example, for
desktop15, put '15' in the last byte like shown below:
<mac address='52:54:00:b1:79:15'/>
|
Execute command below:
virsh define /etc/libvirt/qemu/kvm3.xml
|
Start then VM, then login to its console
virsh start kvm3
virsh console kvm3
|
Then execute the following command on the VM
The IP address should be on 192.168.5.0 subnet.
From the desktop, ssh to kvm3. For example, if the IP address is
192.168.5.188:
ssh hostadm@192.168.5.188
