[one-users] Network for the VMs

[Ruben S. Montero]

Hi,

*(step 1) *You can define network related parameters for each virtual
network. In the template just add them like


NAME = "Red LAN"
TYPE = RANGED
PUBLIC = NO

BRIDGE = vbr0

NETWORK_SIZE    = C
NETWORK_ADDRESS = 192.168.0.0

*#You can add any custom attribute*
DNS = 192.168.0.9
*GATEWAY* = 192.168.0.1


*(step 2) *The custom attributes can be then used in the CONTEXT section of
the VM. So you can pass the attributes you want to the VM at boot time, e.g.

CONTEXT = [
  hostname   = "MAINHOST",
  gateway    = "$NETWORK[*GATEWAY*, NAME=\"Red LAN\"]",
  files      = "/service/init.sh /service/certificates
/service/service.conf"
]


*(step 3) *The context script of your VM MUST get the gateway at boot time
and configure the NIC according to that value. This last step depends on the
OS of your VM

Alternatively, you can set up a DHCP server on the private LAN of the VMs to
provide some of this values.

Cheers

Ruben
