[ovirt-users] Re: Virtual office, how?
Hi Derek, thanks for the answer.
First, if you have two networks, N1, and N2, you probably DO NOT want
the same IP Network (192.168.122) on both N1 and N2. So for your sanity, if A and B are on
N1 and C and D are on N2, you might want to use
Sorry, my bad. Yup, masking...
I'm confused by this. What do you mean "has the same public
ip"? None of the IPs here are public, they are all RFC1918 (private network) IPs. Do
you mean that you've got a router, somewhere, that have a reverse NAT that will
translate externally from some public addresses to these private addresses?
Sorry about that. Answering your question, I think yes. I know that 192.X.Y.Z is not
public. I mean, I want that as local ip and, for example, 172.X.Y.Z as public ip for the
network. Basically, I want to simulate an office, where the owner of the company pays 1
ISP. That isp gives you a router with 1 public ip, and all connected PC (VMs here) has his
own local ip. It could be 192.X.Y.Z or 10.X.Y.Z (right? not a network expert as you may
notice :P).
I'm not sure I understand what this means. What do you mean by
"A can ssh on B"? This is probably a language issue. I think you mean that A and
B can ssh to each other but can't reach C or D, and C and D can ssh to each other but
can't reach A or B.
Yes, I want that. A <-> B, C <-> D
If you renumber as above then you can do that by not routing between
192.168.10.0/24 and 192.168.20.0/24. However in your original configuration where all four
hosts are on the same 192.168.122.0/24 network, there is no way (at the network level) to
prevent A and B from talking with C and D.
Yes, I forgot about the network mask.
You can do this with OVS, or even with basic networking, but you will
need to create actual separate networks.
What do you mean with creating actual separate networks? Having 1 NIC per public IP?
Because I have only 4 NICs and I want to have as many public IPs as possible because I
want to have as many virtual offices as possible.
