|
Hi All,
I am testing debian based ProxMox as Hypervisor and its looking quite promising. Our company has a requirement, that the vms use bridget network and no nat. That works fine with wired nic connection - particularly because with the following entry in the network settings, it enables usint eap-tls certificates to distinguish in which vlans the vms are routed.
| Code: | | post-up echo 8 > /sys/class/net/vmbr0/bridge/group_fwd_mask |
My goal is to successfully establish networking through a bridge for the vms which is connected to the wifi nic of the host; in proxmox forum they told me that it is possible, but difficult as the problem is, the vm sends packets through the bridge but the access point, did not negotiate its ssid and password with the vm but only with the host, thus the vm is an unknown entity and those packets will probably be rejected.
They also mentioned it should be possible anyway but is rather complicated. a) by connman or b) by rewriting the packages so that they seem to come from the host.
Can anyone point me to the right direction on to how this could be achieved? (Either way - via connman or via rewriting packets) |
