Re: [ovirt-users] Port mirroring outside traffic into a VM?
Once upon a time, Genadi Chereshnya <gcheresh(a)redhat.com> said:
If I understand you correctly you are trying to replace the physical
device mirroring with VM?
Yes, that is correct.
If this is the case I don't think it's possible to do it with
port mirroring oVIRT feature.
The existing oVIRT port mirroing feature is for mirroring traffic between VM devices for
specific Network.
So if you have 3 VMs with network <X> you can monitor on 1 VM that specific network
that is used between 2 other VMs.
Ah, I see.
Is there a way to get an external network interface (that happens to be
a target of an external switch's port mirror/monitor session) to pass
through to a VM? A way that still allows for live migration would be
best of course, but even without that would be a start.
Thanks.
