Re: [ovirt-users] Spice client with engine portal

So I only need to make sure that the users on the other side of the WAN can connect on the spice ports?

Please note that the client is actually connecting to _host_ IP, not to VM IP address. The VM may be configured with no NIC (so w/o any network connectivity) and you'll still be able to connect to it using Spice (or VNC). Only RDP needs connectivity to the VM. > When they click on the console access button, they are unable > to connect to the VM.

In principle, there's no reason why it shouldn't work. ovirt-engine & friends don't care about squid and squid doesn't care about the rest of the system as long as the machine has enough power/bandwidth to run both. > but I think it would be cleaner design to put it on another dedicated > infrastructure host, perhaps already existing in your infra for > similar reasons.
